One of my customers was so fed up with Dish Network not sending him a box to return his gear, and not willing to give him an address to send it to, that he just chucked his receivers & whatnot in my bin.

I pulled out the receiver card, and what do you know?

Nagra!! Tres Swiss! How cool is that? :)

*Most* Nagra's were professional-grade portable reel to reel tape recorders, often used by movie studios and for on-location duties.
