In fact it is the first time I have actually seen one that is for sale. I have seen them before but never for sale.

They were never a big seller for Ten-Tec. IIRC, when the FCC changed dropped of Element 1 testing, the demand for the radios dried up & Ten-Tec then discontinued the radio.

Also, I believe that there is a mod to improve the receiver sensitivity.

Anyway, that's a good price on the rig. Apples to oranges that it may already be spoken for.

Id like to see TT come out with a VHF/UHF base rig. Id also like the idea of them putting out a mobile.

And they now have a mobile rig. That's one of the reasons they came out with the Eagle.

Eh...I wouldnt use it as a mobile. I drive a compact car much of the time.
