Default Help Spending $1000 on SW Radio

Hello. I need help from the group. I'm looking to purchase a semi
high end radio and have about $1000 to spend. I've heard and read
plenty about the R8B and will probably go that direction. That said,
I'm also intrigued by computer radios, ie. Winradio. They have a 313i
model that some say has a greater ability and functionality than the
Drake or any hardware based radio. Any thoughts on a best buy in my
price range - new or Ebay? And do you think that computer radios may
now rival their external brothers? Thanks in advance for the consult.

I will most likely have an R8B for sale in the coming weeks either here or
on eBay, the encoder needs to be fixed as it has a few 'issues' with it,
and I have the part ordered from Drake.

The receiver is in excellent condition otherwise, and has had a tuneup
from Drake within the past two years.

I have a radio for sale. It is not working very well, it is broken. It has
issues. It needs to be fixed, otherwise it is in perfect condition. It has
had a tune up from Drake within the last two years and hasn't worked since.
Make me an offer. $1000 sounds about right. I will only ship to stupid
people that don't know how to find me, because I know you will be really mad
at me for selling you this radio. In the mean time I will try and have the
radio fixed. If I can't have it fixed I will sell the peice of crap for
$1000. Call me if your interested.

Do Soames123 and Chandler7600 share that radio with you, or do they have their
own sets?

I'll offer you $1.38 for it, or if you prefer I'll fix it for $2,500.00 US.
Ship it with a postal money order for $2,500 to clifto, General Delivery,
Chicago, IL and let me know when it's coming.
