Here's another SX-88 up for sale. Wonder how much this one will fetch.

And the reserve isn't even met! Definitely too rich for my taste.

It'll probably go for $10,000 or even more.

wb6acu bought one for 10 grand awhile back. It was maybe a year ago.

Yes, he did.

By the way, I have a personally signed copy of 'Hell Freezes Over' with his callsign on it.

Joe's a pretty darn nice guy.

I've never met him but read quite a bit about his ham radio endeavors.
He spends a good bit of money on ebay that's is certain. He once bid
on a signal generator that I was selling awhile back. I thought about
canceling the auction while he was high bidder and pry an autograph
out of him.

That's pretty much what I did. I sold him some crystals for use in old transmitters up on ePay.
When I discovered who it was I said to heck with the $20 or so and simply asked for a signed
photo. He sent the CD as well.

I did have a good conversation with him on the phone one evening a few years ago when he called
me up.

He bought one of my SX-28s I restored a few years ago. He is a very nice
guy. He has some young guy that drives around the country picking up radios
and stuff for him. I thought? What a great job.
