Hi Brian,
I would say that it is the earlier model, the one
that only goes down to 500kHz. Since I wanted the upgrade to allow
the unit to tune down to 500kHz, and since it had an intermittent
backlight problem, I decided to ship it out to Drake this afternoon.
Now I understand why the person sold it...........it's always that
same old "I am selling it for a friend, so I don't know anything
about its history" story.
On a good note, Bill Frost, over at Drake told me that it would only
run around 125 dollars for the repair, so I figured, why not?

Pete:
Let us know how it performs after Drake works on it.
