I sent you an email to the other address and haven't heard anything.

What do you have brand new still in the box and what are you asking for it?
What HF and 2 meter radios do you have?

Hi, I have a brand new one for sale. Still in it's box. I'll never use it. I

also want to sell all my ham equipment as soon as possible. Things are 
changing for me, and it's just setting around here and not being used 
anymore. Won't be used where I'm going either. I don't have the info for the

ham list, it got delletted, and all the messages are coming into my inbox.
I also have another email address that I'd prefur to be contacted at. We can

talk about prices when you write.
I have an hf rig with power supply, mc60 mike, and keyer I'd like to keep 
together.
I have two two meeter radios, one doesn't have a mike, an all mode Kam 
packet unit, and a jay pole. Would like to keep this all together.
Please write to
[log in to unmask] and we can discuss any prices.
