What I meant by "Those were the days" was how great that must have been
"back then" when you could walk into a store and have radio parts and pieces
to look through, radios on display and books to browse. No cell phones or
satellite TV to see. Radio was the latest and greatest. Not like now.
It's all about high definition TV, satellite and surround sound, and cell
phones.

From an radio hobbyist point of view, those were the days. I don't know
about spies and government regulations.
