Ok folks, too many HT's and my beloved VX-7 is on the block for a new home.

I posted about this radio in the abused HT thread. I'll repost the pictures here.

It has a realitively new battery that will last 8 or 9 hours with light use, has the added weather module that gives you Baro, Alt ect.

Cosmetic condition is poor, the silver coating has come off in alot of high wear areas, but all the key labels are still there and readable, the radio works perfectly and has been modded. It spent 15 months in Mosul Iraq with me and I used it to scan freqs and listen in to the locals with the help of my interpreter. Actually heard a few bad guys in the FRS ranges.

The original charger crapped out and I made up a new one with a 12v power cube. I also have a home made programming cable that works with the VX-7 Commander software.

I dont have the 6m antenna extension, but I do have the original manual.

So best offer over $50 will get you this great working radio. I'll keep this posting going for 2 weeks and best offer over $50 will get the radio.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
