One left Doc, and it's in Kalifornia....

Checked KJI Electronics here in Jersey, they got them, but they want the same price that they are getting for the newer ID-880H $479.00...plus sales tax....plus shipping....

Think I'll wait til I sell off my VHF Marine radio, zero out my CC, then order the 880H from HRO, no tax or shipping, then sell my FT-2800M to help pay down the charge....

Mole....too much of a spread with the repeaters here to depend on an HT, and I'm waiting til the OEM buys me one with the GPS speaker/mic, and a spare battery.....

I have a sneaky suspicion that D-Star radios may be somewhat like computers, after a few years they'll become obsolete until the technology reaches it's apex and can't advance any farther, so might as well bite the bullet and get the latest version......
