New in box - Uniden Grants
 
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...Name=WDVW&rd=1

I can't believe how much these go for. Both these and the XL are going for over
$300, new in box. The funny thing is, the Grant LT are the same radio, and you
can get them new in box for about $130. I did. I even emailed Uniden, and they
said the were the same radio. I would put my $300 toward an HF rig.

Good radio, especially if you keep it warm, eh?

Super on sideband. I talk all over the country on 10 meters with about 15 watts
SSB. I put the grant LT in the car, and it is rock solid stable. The Galaxy 949
I had drifted like an unanchored boat.

Have you left it in the car when it's below freezing yet?

if you dont have a minor mod to the main pcb then there may be a problem
with the lcd freezing when temps get cold.

That is ridiculous!

I bought my Grant XL for Only $138.xx at a radio show.

I stay away from eBay!

Whoever prices those things ought to be schooled on the value of radio
comms!

I bought a Grant LT for $130 shipped, which Uniden Tech Support emailed me and
said was the same as the XL. All the mods from the XL works on the LT. Instead,
they want to pay $300.
