I know.a guy who lives in a tent. The guy is x-forces and we talk about ham radio. the guy is a genius and deserves so much more in life. He in passing told me about potentially going to visit you in ealing! now i gather that was many moons ago! *super moons included* .. I told him you're in staines now. i doubt he will actually visit (given his circumstances) but I am going to give him a dh808 or something similar. he will love it.

[@Solderwire]

That radio in the beginning reminds me of the ones in the shop window in the 60's i used to drool over.

[@YllaStar95970]

That Sony ICF-2001D has some of arguably the very best synchronous detection to this day. It's selectively and sensitivity makes it still one of the very best shortwave portables ever manufactured. So much so, that when it was released it was the radio of choice for foreign spies to tune into numbers stations. This one is a sleeper, and a keeper.👍 (2E0HVU).

[@RSwrightMD]

Always love these sales events. Martin only gets better with each one; he and Tony are a great pair! Hope to visit the store next year.

[@stephendriscoll3314]

I just love hearing about the background to some of these radios in the FF section. Could easily spend a couple of hours just browsing throught that lot!

[@davidjowett8195]

"I'll take £100 off of this one" Pan left after the video end and Martin is having to sit down in shock, again 😃 Great to see the boss supporting the team like that and trusting them to do their jobs properly.

[@aamoir536]

Made the pilgrimage to lynchys last year while south from Glasgow, bought DMR and diamond whip, well worth a visit, had a free cup of coffee, ace shop

[@petermarshall5363]

Nice to hear such high praise for the now late Brian Bond (Radio Shack, West Hampstead) 😊

[@user-ku9rr5lj2o]

Nice to see all the old (proper) gear this week, had me near to tears, had to have a brandy or two to sort myself out.

[@TheHamRadioJunkie]

Loving the old kit. The FT-290R, my first radio back in 1985. Boy, I loved that. 2.5Watts on SSB into a 9 crossed Tonna on the side of my parents' house, I worked so many stations.

[@bowmans2062]

I would love that old multi band radio, reminds me off when I was younger. Sit up in the night listening to anything the radio would pick up. I do believe I did listen to Beacon Radio (west midlands) and the (shush) police.

[@BernieT2122]

Used ham radio equipment can be some of the most cost effective investments. I love knowing what issues may exist before getting the unit.

[@dexta1969]

I had one of those receivers, was my first access to radio, from there it was a pair of walkie talkies, then CB then full ham Thanks for the memories

[@steverose1]

Another great video gents. You guys are a great double act and I love listening to Martins memories with regards to gear he used to sell. Thanks and take care.

[@jonathannorris5437]

I wish we had more shops ran like this! If you fancy opening another shop near Christchurch, I'd very much appreciate it 😂👍 73

[@andynew2]

What a wonderful trip down memory lane that was. My first real communications receiver was the R1000 (bought from ARE) . I also had the AR2001, later owned both the Icom R71 and after that, a JRC NRD545. 73 to you all from M7CUN.

[@sarto7bellys]

Nice to see Tony and the Guvnor together

[@skater4169]

Nice to see a couple of old radios being displayed, tuning in from sunny Chessington.

[@nathanwaller7242]

Thanks for reaching out with your energy, onwards and upwards, fella'd 👍

[@timcollingwood6158]

Well that Hira receiver brings back some good memories,must be 40+ years That’s what got me started on my journey to swl and scanning thanks for the channel

[@iandobson8846]

I'm pretty sure I had one of those back in around 1981/2. Probably still hidden away in a box on the loft too.

[@The_Jas_Singh]

I bought an Icom 7100 and 2820 from Tony 5 years ago at a great price! Fantastic company with great service.

[@JohnSmith-wl8cv]

Great to see many of the great ham radios built like tanks made to last ,thanks for showing us around

[@polomint46]

Hope my generously gifted FT-101ZD cleans up as well as that radio, Starting in HAM and HF this year, with many years to follow.

[@susancarter9862]

Enjoyed this "One for the weekend" especially seeing those great prices for quality gear. Looking forward to the next one already.

[@roasttoe]

Foundation exam booked! Hoping to stop by the shop very soon and say hi 👍🏼👍🏼

[@markbennett6818]

Always wanted a radio like that when I was a kid , ended up having a Tandy Jet Stream Mini for aircraft band rx 😀 over 40 years ago , how time flies

[@greghernandez3012]

Hi!!! I have ordered a couple of used transceivers from you and have been highly satisfied. Great job!

[@MikeG3PGA]

Thanks Martin for the visit to ADARC. Enjoyed by everyone. Looks like the lemon drizzle cakes went down well. Hurry back to sunny Devon. 73 de Mick G3PGA + XYL Velma.

[@Martin_Lynch]

Cheers Mike, take care of that lovely Mrs, her cakes are amazing! See you end September, 73 de G4HKS

[@adriancorbett3501]

A great little radio, I had one of those as a nipper. Will be coming in for the first time tomorrow!!

[@stevesweb]

Oh my, what a great walk down memory lane! I believe if I was there this last weekend, I would have spent all my savings. 😂 I don't know how I hadn't been Subscribed, but I've fixed that! Thanks guys for a great video and history lesson. 😉

[@LambertMatias]

That reminds me of a Radio Shack radio I got in the late 1970's. Cheers!

[@MzkJnky80]

got an alinco dx-70th here, bought it mint boxed. fantastic little radio for its time.

[@MyFizzypop]

back in the day i used borrow from my dad the hira portable radio to listen to the police lol.

[@duanetrivett750]

I wished we had a used equipment shop in Tennessee like this one ! The Kenwood R 1000 for 75 quid , I think $100 American? Sold!!!

[@Kb4cod]

I really enjoy your videos. If I ever get to cross the pond I would love to visit your shop.

[@Ham5nut]

The Hira was great for the miracle of listening to ITV on a radio! Sadly mine just disappeared over time. I guess it was Hira today, gone tomorrow.

[@sandynewman5533]

Awesome deals. Wish I was in the UK where I could have an in person visit to your shop.

[@kilod7352]

Very interesting shop and the older radios are great to see.

[@Metodisten]

Realy nice radio! Love the look of vintage radio equipment

[@AdhirSaiyadh-dg5tu]

Excellent explanation. We learnt a lot

[@davidsteele5102]

The R1000 maybe working normally. Top Band and everything below 2MHz is on the MW ANT long wire connector. That range is not available via the SO 239. A quirk of the design. Nice receivers. I have on I bought second hand at a rally in the 80s. Dave G8UPO.

[@victorbrand3056]

Loved the Used Gear video, especially that beautiful JRC receiver. Those were the days! And agree that the FT450D is still an excellent rig. Pity it had to cease production. Best regards to the M&S team de Victor G3JNB.

[@Martin_Lynch]

Glad you enjoyed the presentation Victor & thank you to your continued support of my Ham Radio store over the last 33 years. 73 de G4HKS

[@carlcowling8414]

What a fantastic piece of history! Good luck everyone and thanks for the videos!

[@bbjunkie]

Love the old gear, shame you dont sell it over the phone on a no return basis :(

[@robhawkins2492]

Had one of these HIRA radios when I was 10 years old... I'm now 55 😅. Would love this as a bit of nostalgia. G5ROB

[@SuperDemon1973]

Would love to have that radio to start my collection I have been looking at older receivers I have a couple of yaesu transceivers and love the hobby .

[@bassblower]

Hey Martin, I had a clone of the Hira,it was amazing (all I could afford back in 1983) as luck would have it I lived about a mile from GB3MH (when it was in Malvern) so I could hear the local repeater along with the local police occasionally. If I recall it was branded Icon, similar to a much more respectable radio manufacturer, I don’t suppose they were too happy about that. . Thanks for reminding me of a time before my G1 license. 73 G1CBL

[@Martin_Lynch]

Glad you enjoyed the show Lee!! 73 de G4HKS

[@colinashley]

Always good to see your video notifications arrive in my inbox :)

[@sean-2e0xbt57]

Hi Guys - Looking to visit again soon :)

[@dieterbuschbaum6904]

Great video again ! Love this channel

[@julianorchard6129]

Bought a radio from mls awhile back excellent love it

[@Houman0075]

Great video every week! Thank you

[@jaut-76]

Seeing all this lovely kit is making me happy though I do feel a bit sad that the old hollow state valve kit isn’t as desirable now. I have a heathkit HW101 and a Swan 350C as my main SSB rigs and a heathkit DX100u for AM. My yaesu FT767gx with all the modules and ctcss is my backup HF rig and main VHF.

[@ianpatterson6202]

Another good vid guys, do enjoy these.

[@SeaDogJak]

Just starting to get into radio and found your channel. Sub'd and looking forward to getting my HAM licence.

[@martingreen109]

Great video, superb collection , keep it going guys. 👍

[@muggletonmodelrailway7438]

I got my very first transciever from the Govnor at the Granby Halls back in 1994 a Yeasu FT8500

[@Martin_Lynch]

I'd love to say I remember the deal but I don't !!!! Thanks for your support anyway, 73 de G4HKS

[@raymondphillips8847]

Great info as always

[@colinlee2199]

Very nice old radio.

[@OZ5ZX]

Man i wish we here in Denmark had shops like that, where one can go and have a look around. Thanks for the tour. 73 de OZ5ZX

[@RJohnLaidler]

Nice to see the boss on screen!

[@MI7DJT]

I'd love to own that Hira!! What a beautiful piece of kit!

[@geoffc1580]

Great video, fantastic looking store.

[@KB4TAD-Radio]

Nice radio and love your store!

[@M3GJZ]

Will be in the shop tomorrow morning.

[@mrdinx]

Enjoyed the repair videos.

[@ae1tpa92gwtom2]

Cheers Gents, really gd kit this week!

[@xtc2v]

The Hira looks in fantastic condition!

[@M7BVV-Phil]

what a lovely little receiver of yesteryear!

[@alkelly8194]

Great video guys 👍🏼

[@alanbaker9883]

Great video and equipment

[@harriercraig]

Great knowledge on this site I want that old radio badly I've got a scanner

[@ronhardie9213]

great video as usual ,might need to pop in at some point !!!

[@darrenwarburton5298]

A wonderful old wireless. I had one when I was a kid.

[@markrogerson5344]

Just purchased a uniden of you 2weeks ago thanks for help

[@Auntystatic]

oh my that is a flash from the past

[@malcolmclarke3033]

That radio looks very smart

[@stevegill1731]

That Hira is possibly the same receiver I had in the early to mid 80's. If I remember correctly it did hf, airband, 2m and 154mhz and we all know What you could pick up there. Anyway seeing that brought back memories. Talking about JRC's I bought a NRD545 and an AOR 5100 from Martin Lynch back in 2000' sadly they are gone now as trade ins. 😕 loved those two recievers. Also thanks I received the Morse paddle I bought today. Steve MM0SGQ

[@stevegill1731]

Note I am off to cut the grass now. No rain for the next five days so the forecast says.

[@la5984]

Great video guys from USA

[@thequietwhistler9922]

I got one of those Hiras (probably by another badge name), 83/84. Was my first multiband receiver ... good im old.... GM1COF

[@stirlingpark6145]

I also have/had one but the aerial snapped.

[@G7LJL-Steve_Murton]

What a perfect pair Martin and Tony make, reminds me of the two Ronnies, both working hand and glove with the punch lines. You can’t mistake the Guv though.What an Aladdin cave of goodies. The FRG7 was the SWL radio of dreams when I first started. The FTDX10 (NEW) I purchased 6 weeks ago is a dream thank you for the advice and support. G7LJL

[@Boffinsback]

Great watch guys so many amazing radios there

[@kennethhill9454]

I love you guys and old gear.

[@timg5tm941]

That Alinco DX70TH looks v nice

[@scottsmith1653]

Nice radio, I had the exact same model

[@stephenbrown9400]

A total treasure trove you have there....will plan a visit for a look.

Top man bought loads from him in radio rallies over the years

[@phillipbeech1358]

Excellent company always doing great sales, I used to look forward in meeting them at Elvaston Castle back in the day

[@qrplife]

Looks like a great shop, I just wish it weren’t 5000 miles from my QTH. 73.

[@philsimpson6093]

nice looking little radio

[@andyM7XTT]

Some good prices this week guys :)

[@geoffporter7859]

A blast from the past!

[@davidelrick3131]

Nice radio love All CB airband plus amateur stuff

[@Charlottesville798]

Great Video, always love the Friday banter...73

[@EdzashedFudwinkle]

Happily Trade some radios/scanners/2m 70cm hh etc, for the 990 & a Desk mic?? 🤔 Guess I'd be better off just phoning the shop tomorrow & asking. Great video, £550 for an 891 too, plenty to choose from. 👋

[@Martin_Lynch]

Please call us and we will certainly give you a trade in price. 01932 567 333

[@blugoose86]

One of these days, I'll afford to cross the pond and visit. I may never leave.,

[@blugoose86]

OMG the Yaesu 757GX was my first commercial radio I bought new in 1986! I bought all three pieces, the radio, auto tuner, and the speaker power supply! It was pretty expensive though. It was around $2000 US dollars, but the divorce ended up costing me much more.

[@gtretroworld]

I have my eyes on a few bits there guys..thanks for the video..73’s

[@jimedahl]

Love the Hira!

[@vasil4oBG]

World not just famous but TOP HAM Store!

[@richmiller-bn1gh]
