It's always interesting to hear opinions dissenting from those of the others, as they can convey new information. So what you are suggesting to me is to negotiate the price down to about one half of what has been requested... I am sure to be able to obtain a price reduction, as, knowing who is the seller, his first word rarely is his last. But 50% discount seems a bit too much... I don't need a transceiver, I have already a Kenwood TS-950SDX which I like a lot. What I am in search of, is a dedicated receiver for my intended useage. Will keep im mind your opinion, thanks for it. 73 Alberto I2PHD
