    saw this on ASR and found it amusing. Some piece of Asian-made digital hardware, by the looks of it. They appear to have kind of misinterpreted the "XLR" connection(s). B)

    I also note, wryly, the hand turkey logo on the front panel. :#

    PS The original post speculates (and here I paraphrase broadly) that we're probably lucky that they didn't label the unbalanced inputs as RCA and LCA. :p

    I used to be able to watch them practice on my front porch when I lived at a beachfront joint in Norfolk, VA.

    At first I thought those photos were due to a shark sighting.
    There's something going on in NY right now with sharks. Roy Scheider is out there with a drone, yelling at everyone to get outta the water.

    Flip it 180 degrees, it's just upside down. Then need to raise the blade back to the top via the rope.

    A couple of winters ago, Mrs. H and I drove over to Portland, ME, in search of a very unusual bird that had been seen there in a small park. Friendly city, Portland.

    We did see the bird (a raptor species from far, far away that had apparently gotten very, very lost while migrating). Sadly, it succumbed to the cold weather a week or two later. :(

    Me, too! It's even a '74, just like mine was.
    sigh.

    EDIT: although I just noticed the turn signals are different than mine. Mine had larger amber turn signals on the grille, with grey "rubber" boots behind them (perhaps you can see them in the photo below). The ones on this "Ranger" level trim Bronco look like they might have been borrowed from an earlier model year Bronco (???) -- perhaps (presumably) the whole grille? The red-plastic inlaid "FORD" lettering is right for the '74 Sport and Ranger, though. :p

    Saw a virtual twin to that one above a couple years ago at the Chattanooga Motorcar Festival.

    That engine & air filter housing are identical to mine. :) Now I'm gettin' all nostalgic.
    The turn signals look like my '74, too.
    I wonder if the spare tire carrier rattles like mine did as well. :p

    Gorgeous truck, gorgeous photos. Thanks very much for sharing them!

    EDIT: I just have to keep reminding myself that I could buy a lot of classic Altec drivers and horns for what a truck like that'd cost me... :#
