So I get a call from W3WH on Saturday (in the midst of the family reunion, of course). Amongst other things, he tells me that a local-to-him ham in Washington PA was in the midst of selling off some equipment.
Did I think that KB3ERQ would like a TS-940S? With filters, speaker, PS, etc... for $300?
Long & short of it, I got them talking, and Ben took the radio home on Sunday (yea!)
He should be putting in on the air shortly. At the moment, his only HF antenna is a 10 meter Ringo, but that's a start...
