\n> Back in the late 70's / early 80's I had just
\n> started working for the
\n> EMS in San Francisco. Our supervisors used a kind
\n> of super-sized
\n> mobile radio in their cars. The radio was about the
\n> size of a car
\n> battery. It had an antenna that went up around 3
\n> feet attached to one
\n> side at the top. On the other side at the top was
\n> the mic with a
\n> clip. There was a handle across the top. Channel,
\n> squelch and volume
\n> controls were under the handle. The antenna
\n> unscrewed for mobility.
\n>
\n> These type of high-powered large mobile radios were
\n> in use until about
\n> the mid-80's, when handheld units became widely
\n> available and
\n> affordable. Anyone know what series this radio was?
