You're sure right, I see them on ebay all the time for like $65 or $75 in

I buy them. They are a simple radio to use, I mainly made the comment about
the size for the benefit of the person who wanted a smaller one to let them
know it's not that small but it sure is useable and they can take a beating
too as my first one taught me.
