Pretty Nice Allmode

I just bought a IC 260 A off ebay, wanting to get on 2m SSB after 20 years of not being on. So far I am happy with it, pros are simple to use, and within my budget. I guess downfalls are only 10 watts, and no tone board. That I don't care about, I bought it for SSB! Hey its a start, get on 2m SSB and off the repeaters, try something new. If nothing else it will make a great low power IF for 1296 or something else.

Good all around 2 meter all mode radio 
|
Time owned: more than 12 months
|
The Icom 260A is a good all around all mode 2 meter radio especially suited to the person just beginning to explore VHF sidebanding/CW or a a good backup rig.
This radio does not have PL encode/decode, and has a power output on FM and SSB of 10 watts.
Price class for a clean radio in good working order is $200.00 to $250.00. If you can pick one for a better price, the cheaper the better.
Good luck
