Can anyone tell me (I see one of you has one mobile in a van!!!) what you think of the Murphy base station????.I love the look of it ,looks very chunky,like an old "Ham" rig.Its just the name that flings me a bit like a trani radio made by Alba.I remember seeing them in 82/83 and liked them then.......any thoughts would be interesting guys

Murphy Base Station - Good points: Retro Ham-Radio styling Solid build quality Built-in SWR meter Good TX audio Ok receive Bad Points: Audible mains hum at low volume levels Squelch has quite a "Pop" as it cuts in and out The original mic was a tiny thing with a round metal grille - not many come with the original mic and something to look for if originality is important.

<RANT> PC, Elfin-Safety, Don't upset the minorities, and all the other limp-wristed, liberal, nanny-state directives are ruining this country (what's left of it). :headband: Ninety nine times out of a hundred the so-called "Victim" doesn't give a Monkey's and it's all down to some narrow-minded, anal-retentive jobsworth that dreams up all the "Roolz". The "Bird licking the stick" probably didn't feel like a degraded and abused sex-object, she probably felt like someone having a laugh and earning few quid on a photo shoot. </RANT> |
