Hi,
I agree entirely with KA2SH2's and N6HBJ's negative points of view about the
G S 800:

The reception and the audio quality are NOT that good, the Satellit 650's
and 600's are far better. IMHO this radio is overrated and too expensive.
I'm very disappointed with it maybe because I can compare it with my other
rigs at any time. Have a look at eBay Germany, there are a lot of 600 and
650 every week at reasonable prices, you won't regret it if you buy one.

I wish a nice w.e. to everybody !

compact enough to be used as a portable, i was wondering what anyone
thought of this peice of kit

for cash?

Thanx
