What part of INEXPENSIVE don't you understand?




I can't find the word 'inexpensive' in your post. Can you?

I suggest that you read the whole thread before you post critical
remarks.

"The radios I selected were INEXPENSIVE (emphasis added) and pretty
good at their niche."

This group receives many inquiries from beginners who don't have a
lot of money to spend and who are interested in inexpensive ( there's
that word again) radios to try out the hobby. In my introduction I
always try to indicate the people who might be interested in the post.
Obviously, those who have a Bellwhistle 7000 (that being the price)
will not be interested but I think newcomers should be encouraged. The
group also receives a number of help requsts from owners whose
expensive radios have broken down. I stand
by my list of beginner's radios, some of which are still on the market,
and others easily available. They are inexpensive, represent good
value, are trouble-free with some having been in service for ten
trouble-free years. Economics state that you always get the cheapest
thing that will do the job. All the rest is ego.

Now that you are cringing in abject humiliation, I suggest that you
help out 5 newcomers to atone for your sin of rush to judgement.
