Well after the last person took home all the cash from the loto.
I was wondering what would I do with 300,000,000.00??
Then it dawned on me why not find a reliable radio manufacture
contact Browning labs and bring out a whole new limited edition radio.
Lots of new tech out there like SDR what you thing about a (FLEX)
type Browning???

I might be alone here, but I suspect not when I say that this would not be a Browning, at least not in the classic sense. What made those radios what they are are the tube components, and the characteristics of those components. If you'd be ok with an RCI-type chinese-made clone in a Browning case, I guess it's ok. I'll pass............. |

As far as not being a Browning in the classic seance(tubes) But in the quality aspect that would be the direction any new item would have to be approached. Not using a part because it cost less but because it is the best part for the job and will last for many years like the classic units. Remember when the saying
" You get what you pay for." realy ment just that? This is what I was getting at.
No RCI clone but a new way to do an old thing.
