Hi
Well even full price it sounds like a good deal. I'm in college right
now so I'm counting my pennies, or I'd go for it! I've always had a
preference for Kenwood. By the way does it have direct frequency entry, or
do you have to scroll to the frequency like the icom I use now?
That's pretty cool about WZ1K being part of your club too !
God bless,
Mark WZ0K
God loves you!
