Piece of junk. Send it here and I'll charge only fifty dollars to take it off your hands.
Congrats. If you need some links on APRS operating PM me.
$450, lightly used and I do mean lightly, never mobile, and its been packed away for the last 6 months. Previous owner moved into a condo and couldn't use it as it set off the fire alarms in all 50 units! It was still in the original plastic and twist ties!
Hooked it up to the Jeep briefly to make sure it powered up and it does. No mobile antenna so couldn't check Tx or Rx, but I trust him. He sent it to me and trusted that I'll send him payment when it got here. We're both law enforcement...
OH FRRREEEDDD!
Oh!!! What a LIFE!!!!
wish I had one HALF that new!

My hobbies have to support themselves. I don't have anything else to sell, so it will be a while before I get an HF transceiver.

No no no. Don't do that. If it's a Jeep, and we all know how good the 4WD is on them, can you take out the picture window in the front and get in that way?Quote:

After he just went through all that putting up a 2M J-pole??? NOT SO FAST, it'll work after a fashion on its 3rd harmonic so he may or may not need a 70cM antenna.
I am a huge proponent of recycling..... He can send it to me to recycle. My recycling center operates free of charge. Hell, I'll even pay the shipping charges! :rofl:Quote:

I think most vehicles get scratched just crossing the AZ border.
Y'all wanna know what the definition of irony is??
This is one of many...

Waiting for nearly three months for a radio, and then being faced with the possibility of having to sell it before you even get to use it!!!! (along with cameras and photo gear!!)
Oh oh, wtf happened?

Pre-approval doesn't mean anything any more. I'd hold off on dumping assets until the loan actually comes through.Quote:

Watch yourself.

Obviously everything is subject to change, but they've already pulled everything and ran the numbers based on a price I've given them. We can go lower for sure, but going higher requires further scrutiny.
Chris, the guys are right. DON'T SELL OFF UNTIL YOU CLOSE!!! The mortgage bank will scrutinise your deposit/withdrawl records from your personal accounts. Any major purchase (emergencies usually excepted), and deposits OTHER THAN paychecks or tax refunds can get your pre-approval cancelled. Any other money deposited into your account will probably need a source of funds statement.
So keep all that cash you're earning by cooking meth in a suitcase under your bed.Quote:

Yeah, I had a 68 and a 71. They were fun as hell to drive, but if you ever rear-ended someone. even at a slow speed, it could be quite devastating.
