Didn't I see that you also bought a second communications receiver (or am I perhaps mistaken) ?

Yes, another Hammarlund, an HQ-180 which is the model I wanted to begin with. (Although I really do like this HQ-129-X.)

I mentioned it, with a photo, in August 2019 Finds and Losses. Click where it says August 2019 Finds and Losses; this link will take you to page 3 of that thread. Scroll to post #40. Despite a poor packing job by the seller, it arrived in fine shape and plays fairly well. It does have a few issues but it is in pretty good shape overall.
