I may just get the VX-8R. There are 440, 6m and 2m repeaters within 5 miles of me, and 440, 6, 2 and 1.25 in the big city within 20miles of me.


What would I expect to pay for a new VX-8R at a ham-fest type event? They are $390 shipped on universal radio.com, would I do better waiting?


EDIT: I am working with a seller to buy a LNIB VX-8R for $340 shipped.
