Ended with no bids - couldn't even get $10 for it. Pathetic.

Given that he ended the auction early, I figure he either found a local
buyer, or had seller's remorse and decided to keep the radio.

Back door sale. Nice rig, fine condition. Was probably offered much
more than he expected.

To everyone regarding the SX-117.
I attempted to listen in to ECARS during the week, and could not find them.
When I found them on another radio, I looked into it. CHU was off in
frequency by a good amount...more than what the display calibrator could
correct for. I'm sure it is just that routine of adjusting a coil at one
end of the band, and a cap at the other end...back and forth, back and
forth. But, I am going to send it to WA8SAJ for the task...and whatever
other magic he routinely performs.
It'll be back!

......Dave

Item no longer available for sale? He most likely had a good, cash
offer that was high enough not to bother with e-bay any more.

Nice ones are, or were going in the $200 range. They are not rare,
but are becoming popular.

And why is that? He still had to pay a listing fee and people have a right
to change their mind.

Doing what he did?? He took the thing off auction because it wasn't up to
snuff. He said it would be back up when he gets it back from peaks and
tweaks. Some of these guys don't pay attention I guess.
