    WTB: Icom IC-706MKIIG HF/VHF/UHF Transceiver

    I took everyone's advice and purchased a newer IC-7000 from Universal radio that has been gone over and not an ebay purchase. I hope the receive on this radio is better,

    I couldn't find a 706mkIIg that I liked so I ended up with a IC-7000. It looks great and the reviews on it seems to be another hit so I think that's a good versatile starter HF multi rig. Thanks

    I saw that as soon as it was posted. $600 was good but I'm not sure they they never take paypal. It's always postal money order or a cashiers check. Not sure why, but thanks RatsoW8. Regards Dave

    Why "ain't I gonna listen? I did consider that radio and it is within my price range. I just don't know anyone that has one. All the 706's around here I've listened to, talked to and on played with so I have a little experience with them. I wish I had a chance to play around with other rigs...

    B,esides that I don't want to spring for a new one. I'd rather get a nice used 706 to play with,

    It seems as though everyone wants top dollar especially on ebay which I'm very leary about buying a lemon. Everyone is trying to move a used one at top dollar to buy as you said a 7300.

    Oh yes I understand they are a few years old but a couple guys around here use them and like them. They also sound good. I was looking at the IC-7000 and that's very nice but pricey. The IC-7300 is new and pricey as well and I am mobile only as I live in a condo. An attic antenna just doesn't...

    WTB: Wilson 5000 head

    I need a Wilson 5000 head. I don't need a stinger or a magnet just the head unit. Does anyone have one? Mine just split. I put a bead of epoxy on it but I would rather have one without a crack going through it.
