Yes, this is a great deal for a beautiful radio. Now, guess what? Nobody wants it
My personal feeling is that it cannot be held ones hand. In various hobby/work fields I am involved in, the evolution of the next generation is quite different than that the past. The hand held devices have taken over their lives to a point that nothing else matters. Hobbies/life now are based on the handheld device so big rigs of the past are a thing of the past. Computers have gone the same way. If you check with a lot of other hobbies they are going away as well.
Lately I am following a friend of mine who has a large HO guage train setup. He is selling it all off since he sees no younger group coming along to teach. Myself I am selling off most radio/electronic gear while there may be money in it.
As my family says, "Dad talks all over the world with a room full of stuff. I can do the same with my phone"
Just my Canadian bucks worth......
