Back in the 1970s it was the ubiquitous rig for DXing on 2m in the UK and rest of Europe.
Coupled with a 30W linear and 9 el Tonna antenna, this was the rig of choice for many. They had plenty wrong with them, but I look back on mine with fond affection.

I had a Liner 2 when they first came out - bought it from Bill Lowe at a rally. Had a 6 ele Jaybeam at home and a 4 ele for portable working. Recall working strings of DL’s from Worcester during a lift when the best Dx previously had been about 30 miles on FM! Great fun....

I did not have a Liner 2, but I did get the Trio TR-7010. Working the about 8W I worked some nice DX with that one.
