All right. I'll be coming in late Friday and going home Sunday afternoon
some time which I think is when it closes down. I don't know what I will
buy, but I would like to buy something really expensive that will probably
be there. I is an Astro Motorola Saber to be able to monitor my local
police who went to 800 MHz digital and am tired of hearing data
sounds. I'm either going to get that or something or, wait til the new
digital trunktrackers come out, which hopefully they'll be an
exhibit. I'll be going with a Motorola rep who isn't a ham but he loves radio
and electronics. I know that even a Saber III or II is about $800 used,
but I like I said am tired of listening tdata sounds. I want to get
somnice though.
