What did you wind up paying for it Lisa? If you don't mind me asking.

I like driving them, you have much more control & can work to dig out weak
signals; the receivers I have that "do it for me" just doesn't do so well;
case in point the Sangean ATS803A; good on the dipole but absolutely deaf on
the whip; plus so real control over the signal like the 302! Same with the
394; excellent receiver off the external antenna, but lacking a preselector

Got my DX-302 today - MAN! Is this a receiver!

They are nice but you have to drive them (spin lots of knobs) to get where
you are going. Don't know why so many people run them down, think they
either don't know how to drive them, got a lemon or have them confused
with
the DX300 which looked like a 302 but quite different. I used one for
quite
awhile with an AEA interface and an old Commodore computer to copy cw and
ritty and it did very well. RM~
