IC-02E Restored

Icom IC-02E

I’ve recently recovered from my latest house moving boxes, my old IC-02E. After a quick cleaning i’ve decided to use it for local VHF freqency montoring. When I bought it, ten years ago, it was a second hand radio, but was my first VHF transceiver. I decided then to demote it to a cluster dedicated radio, but soon, with the diffusion of broadband connections and telnet cluster software, i relegated this radio to my radio junk box. Tonight I decided that maybe with a larger speaker it may be usefull for evening local repeaters and qso’s listenings… why not.
