Another one...
Another good deal...I think...and another that doesn't do PayPal. Wassup? Hams in general don't like PayPal?
At least this one was nice...

No. That's cantankerous. I can deal with cantankerous. After all, it describes me.
As I said in the earlier message, he's a prick. Plain ol', not worth a bucket of warm spit, prick.
Amazing how high you can get with a slingshot and fishing line with both feet firmly on the ground. Yes the dipole is as easy as it gets.
Damn! Hams ARE innovative, ain't ya?
OK...another radio to ask about. a Kenwood ts-140s for $300, shipped. Its from QTH, not EBay...
Because the Alinco is not far from twice the price and the Icom is three times the price...not a small amount for someone living on Social Security.

Pretty common practice these days, scammers can counterfeit about anything anymore....If PayPal is not an option I use USPS Postal MO. I just always check their Callsign info on Qrz and/or FCC database to make sure everything matches....if payment AD/Name...etc. does not match...Deal is over.
All the Best

Same rig as TS-130SE, just a little newer...ask about the "Slider Switches" all tight and working correctly....
All the Best

Rig search over...I think!
Man...you guys have been awesome to a total newbie!
All the advice on how to get started on a tiny TINY budget...lots of feedback on different radios I was considering...a bit of antenna talk (which will pick up now...)...you guys don't know how much I appreciate it.
I think I've found the radio...a Kenwood TS-130s that I got for $275.00. Sale is not completely a done deal yet as the seller found a small issue that he wants to fix before we settle the deal. He's a good, old fashioned Ham who wants to do folks right. He's even including a mic, though that wasn't supposed to be part of the deal. I'll know for sure Thursday or Friday when he gets the small issue fixed.
So...radio deal (probably) done, studying for the Tech and General tests I'll be taking next Monday...now...
I start bugging y'all about antennas!...
