I recently made several QSOs with it, on all the bands that were open at the time, so we believe it to be completely functional and know of no performance problems. It has only minor scratches on the sides and top, and comes with the manual, AC power cord, and 12 VDC power cord. Sales notices are supposed to be upbeat, but it's difficult being upbeat when you are selling such a wonderful rig! 73, Ed Callaway, N4II Motorola ARC, W4MOT Still another WONDERFUL article about Signal/One..... http://www.k5og.com/S1%20History.htm This is a MUST read before you plunk down $2000 on this electronic Edsel.... Oh, the non-believers.... Well, anyone that knows anything about the Milspec 1030 knows that the cx7 just isn't the same rig, and neither is the 1030ci. The 1030 was a true mil-spec, hardened and wonderful radio. It operated without fail over considerable range of conditions, and the remaining examples probably do so even today. Built like a battleship inside, with individual milled aluminum compartments for each subsection, it didn't suffer from many of the maladies of later integrated rigs. For the uninitiated, the 1030ci was an attempt to cash in on the superior function and longevity of the original 1030 by taking a commercial 781 and "hardening" it. I am not aware of many individuals that actually loved the result like those that owned the original 1030. I owned one of the original 1030 radios with the high power option and multi-color led display and loved it, though succumed to it's popularity on the collector market and sold it around 5 years ago to a fellow on the east coast. To this day, I wish I hadn't, though it is hard to fault the icom 746pro and 756ProII I now have that were paid for by the proceeds from the sale of the 1030... If I thought I had a chance of winning the current auction with what's in my radio fund, I'd be in the bidding right now, just to have another one! If you're trying to make waves because of a few bad seeming comments about radios that aren't even the model for sale, then just pleae go away. If you actually truly have experience with the original 1030, then come on, and provide just what you think was wrong with the one you had.... Thanks --Rick AH7H |
