Crossover, I'm not really sure whey they didn't go with a rechargeable system.

Kabinopus, I was a skinny, youngster when I was 17, the cold war was a bit scary, especially when we were cruising the north Atlantic, and we were always on Full Alert, especially when we encountered an unknown ship or aircraft within striking range. It was pretty scary! I was communicating with HAM radio operators in Russia way back in 1952, when I was just 12 years old, and now, with the aid of the internet, I can see and listen your wonderful arrangements. How times have changed. I also have a few Russian/American friends that I met while sailing Chesapeake Bay over the past two decades.

All the best,

Gary
