Richard:
I think the new TMV708A goes for close to $400, but probably a little under.
I've read about TMV7A's going for slightly under $300 "used" these days.
As for cross-band, I think the TMV708A does cross-banding, but maybe someone
on the list knows for sure.
Good luck, and 73 from Tom Behler: KB8TYJ
