In my youth, end of the 70ies, it was my dream to have such a radio. Today I know that it is one of the worst radios that existed. I love it now, to have one \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I looked a very long time for one of that radios. I wished me a TS-788DXcc, but this one the TS-780DX is harder to get as the TS-788DX. I had the luck that in the Ham Radio\u00a0exhibition, one was sales. I got it for 100\u20ac.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
