Finally settled on and Eton E5. After many many searches, contacting "The
Source" head office for assistance in finding one "not a demonstrator

accesories.

The Source has had the Eton E1 in their online catalog for a year.
Nothing in the stores. It was supposed to arrive *last* August.

The staff seems to be more concerned about selling you a cell phone than
a radio. A while back they tried to tell me that a 5k pot was variable
capacitor. Staffing problems are happening everywhere.

They list the E1 as 599$ (Canadian)

I'm glad they didn't have one, as I've found this:

$438.97 (Canadian)
