Good mobile rig.			Time Owned: more than 12 months.
Considering its age this is a fine little mobile rig. It's one of the earlier solid state units, but considering I bought mine used about 15 years ago for $250 and it is still working fine, I can't complain. I didn't even know there was a 5 band version until I ran across this one in the newspaper classifieds. One weak point is the dial mechanism. The anti-backlash spring in the split-gear system is weak and you do have backlash problems. If I ever find a tiny-but-stronger spring that problem will be solved. The original microphone finally gave out, but what can you expect from 15 years of Arizona summers in the mobile. I consistently get excellent audio reports, and the receiver is quite sensitive. I've added a Clearspeech speaker to kill some of the wideband noise and it sounds great. It's nice to have a mobile rig you can operate by feel without messing with menus when you are driving down the road.
