how big and how heavy is your cool VT boomer ?

About 14 inches wide and tall, and about 5 inches deep. As for how heavy, I don't remember exactly, but imagine a box that size made of 1/2 inch wood, and about 3 pounds of tube electronics chassis. Batteries would add a lot to that. Just picture people taking it to the ballgame or a picnic or the beach back in its day...

Yeah, with a lead acid battery. Not a light weight, but soooo cool!

that Sony 23 band looks fun. I've been on a little shortwave listening kick lately with my Pana 2200.
