My old Alinco DR-610 has been thru a lot the last 25+ years.
New/bigger cooling fan, new display back-lighting, some super glue for
a cracked front panel case. However, still a great radio that doesn't
need any backup battery to retain memory channels and nice soft
squelch operation compared to some newer Chinese radio's that simply
switch the voltage on/off to the audio amplifier stage. #Electronics
