Well,  if that's the case, I got mine for a good price,  $20, guy knew what
the unit was but not what it was if that makes sense I guess.  It's a good
little unit, I used it with my old FT-101EX,  I'd love to get my hands on
another of those radios, Kenwood though but with the tube finals some time
to play around with so that might come in handy,  gotta pay off some bills
first though.
