You can't even buy a coaxial cable here. I went to the electronics store and the lady said, here's a 75 ohm. I said, no, I want 50 ohm. She said, this is good. It'll work good. I told her I need 50 ohm. I just walked away. You can't get anything here. It's just how it is. Okay, those radios, I'm trying to think because this is, oh man, going back. Yeah, they were the, I bought them at a radio shack. They were for 10 meters only. Pretty sure this is for 10 meters only. It was a huge thing. Probably had radio in it. It was made by somebody, but radio stuck with your name in it. And that was probably the same radio that they used for 11 meters. Maybe they sold one for 11 and one was for ham radio. You needed a license to get it, whether they actually looked at it or not. But I'm just saying that they did have one there. The reason why I got it was because it was cheap. You know, it would be nice to put 10 meters in my truck. You know, I had a hustler and I had a resonator for 10 meters. And I was all set. But you know, it did work. I mean, it was a cheap radio. I forget the price, but you know, it didn't cost hardly anything. It was a lot cheaper than buying a $500 mobile, you know, HF radio for your truck.
