Hi Howard, do you know if the Ts-590 will speak as much 
information as the Ts-480 using the voice-guide chip? Also, how 
much are those rigs running now? Seems to me they were around 
$1800.00 when they first came out.  I bought the 480 and have 
been happy with it.  Only thing is, I would love to have the 2 
meter and 430 SSB but those bands aren't on the 590 either far as 
I know.
Glad you had fun at Dayton.  Jim WA6EKS
