Futaba supported the TOC?? Didn’t Bill Bennett, aka owner of Circus Circus Hobbies (and the hotel/casino) and primary importer of JR create/sponsor the TOC? Just making sure my history is correct...<BR>

I probably became a fan as Futaba supported the TOC and pattern fairly well early on--JR seemed to be almost an 'also ran' at the time. Obviously they make excellent radios now and are well thought of in the KC area. Now I think of it as a Ford/GM sort of comparison--er, Honda/Toyota...<BR>
