So any good places to mine for gear ?

Not really anymore. All the old spots I used to troll as a kid are either long gone or have gained "intelligence" hell it's rare that I even see BPC stuff from the 80s around here anymore. Funny thing is though, when I do score it's pretty serious, and stuff seems to find me now, or it comes from a unlikely source. But one thing is for sure. Orlando has always been a sansui town. 90% of everything I've dragged home since moving back has been sansui lol

Funny you mention that, as everyone knows sansui and PX depots seem to go hand and hand lol. North central Florida used to be very military active. There's the nasa thing 30 miles to the east of me, as well as patrick AFB, orlando used to have a HUGE navy base, and Tampa had some military stuff too so yeah, that's probably why I see so much of it. Just about every piece I have has the <EP> on it or some old military ID number carved into it, especially the bigger stuff.

Keep an eye out for Marantz too. Lot's of air force guys dragged that stuff home from Japan.

Even though I have a huge cache of vintage marantz, I've only stumbled across ONE marantz receiver since I've been back, a 2252b that my neighbor had sitting in his garage. Got it as a housewarming present. Pretty sweet right? Now, down south, marantz stuff was everyware. 19 out of the 26 marantz pieces I have I got in west palm
