Kenwood TS-520 I've owned since new (c1976) has had the finals replaced
just once, (c1985). They haven't been lit up since it's initial tune up
after the replacement.

Almost nightly, but everything there is garbage. I have a HR-2510 that
scans the bands from 26.xxx to 30.xxx MHz. Talked to some GOBs in Alabama
and Georgia the other day, up around 28.650 and as the day went on, the
skip switched to Idaho and then Alaska.
