Hi Bill,

I find the only safe way not to end up buying radios is to stay at home and when there to keep well away from the computer. When we're out and about my wife is just as bad as yours. In spite of a house full of radios, rather than discourage me she'll egg me on and say "I love it" or "if you like it just buy it, you may never see another". Those words work their charm on me every time.

Paul
