I have the opportunity to own one of these radios and wondered how good this
model really is. Any opinions? And what is one in mint condition with original
packaging worth? Please advise via direct email.............Tnx

I had a 535D (deluxe edition, complete with RTTY decoder), it's a nice radio.
The things I disliked we

1. It never sounded "right" to me. May be the 20db midrange loss in one ear.:-)

2. The memories memorized almost everything, except things that I would have
liked. (e.g. bandwidth)

3. Too many buttons, not enough knobs.

I ended up trading it to the guy that bought my r5000 5 years earlier for
the r5000 and cash.
