Pricey!


I just emailed another HQ-180 fan about that auction. I Have been
watching these for some time now, and I think you sold one recently
that did pretty well.


Sorry, you are confusing me with dxace1. We are two different individuals.

As I recall though, we both worked for the government, and we've both been to
Djibouti.

I thought I paid way to much for mine at 495
locally! I had thought this one may go for 800-900. . Amazing.

Also remarkable how some positive published reviews on a used radio
can affect the market price.
