Not trying to start an argument, Brenda but how can you say the Yaesu is
harder to tune? Punch in 123.45 ENTER. What could be easier?
The Icom, you have to hold a button while turning the bfo, etc...

$200 or so


Yaesu VR-500 or Icom IC-R2 both go for around that price on ebay all the
time.

Oh.. of those two, the Yaesu is by far the better radio... harder to tune,
but has SSB/CW capablility, and there's a firmware (button) mod for
narrowband AM.
