I hate to agree but that SGC tranciever reminds me of my '67 Jag XKE.
When it was running it ran like a bat out of H@*l. When it was running. Somehow I think SGC must have hired some folks from Lucas. :-) Larry W4CSC wrote: I'll open the bidding at a generous $100 (+ shipping of course)....

I ran an XKE of that vintage for 5 years without a mentionable electrical snag. But I did change the radiator header tank. Twice. But I must be biassed because I later ran several American made cars of similar vintage. Electrical rubbish! Starters, generators, alternators. Fuse boxes. Yuck! Then along came the Japanese......

I mechaniced at Brit car dealers and rode Brit "skooters" in those days. We had no more trouble with Lucas than other brands. In fact some replaced their Euro and early Japanese stuff with Lucas for better reliability. Electronics are weird. Theoretically, there's no reason for a transistor or diode to fail, but they do; so often that the telco used tube (valve) type amplifiers in undersea cables. So, as wiring, et cetera, age we see problems that never occurred when the cars were new and often nobody knows why. Wire and other manufacturers made a big leap in materials and QA about the time Japan's industries became prominent and much of their legendary reliability can be traced to this vs anything uniquely Japanese (ie, American, Brit and Euro electrics got better about the same time). Most early Japanese wiring harnesses were "manufactured" by old grandmothers in 1000 seperate home basements using plywood patterns with wire colors penned on them in color - hardly high tech but equally good, and even better if grandma had better insulated and tempered wires..
