Guess the idiots bidding on this haven't
priced NEW one's...

GigaParts has them for almost $125/less.


In addition to the many accessories clearly described on the auction page,
some items were not listed. This bidder contacted me early in the auction to
tell me he wanted both Yaesu radios. As such, as an extra incentive, I
offered him several additional items (software, computer cables, and cloning
cables). I also notified each bidder of an included MFJ antenna not listed
on the auction page. The total new purchase price of all items included with
this one auction is in excess of $600. Between the two auctions, this bidder
saved several hundred dollars over new prices.



When it's all said and done the best piece of goofy nonsense is that
you're (allegedly) dumping your entire ham station (two HTs, matched
pair, his and her's last I heard) and are quitting ham radio.


Well, there was an HF rig also. Dwight is a technician, so he was
probably planning on getting a General ticket once.


I've been listening to that one for decades.

"Upgrades" are where we find 'em around here . . .

'BYE and don't let the door . . .



I think it's too bad that Dwight is getting out of Ham radio.


Why?
