I was interested in purchasing a ftdx 1200 (in the past.) I changed my mind as I do own a ft-950 that I haven't even played with for more than about an hour. And mostly used it to listen to the HF bands. Then I was possibly interested and looking at the ftdx 1200. Now I am considering the ftdx3000. Every time I see one available on eBay that doesn't include the Mars cap modification in its description I always ask the seller if that modification has been performed. I have asked the same question about other HF transceivers two other eBay sellers who also did not mention whether that modification was performed or not. I'd say that 30% of the transceivers I've had interest in in the past that did not include the Mars modification in the description have had it performed once I asked the cellar that specific question. I really find it laughable that someone would actually report a seller for adding that modification in the description. there are hundreds and hundreds of illegal amplifiers being sold on eBay on a monthly basis. And those auctions run through beginning to end. With the item either being sold or relisted after no interest was shown. Unbelievable!

[QUOTE="Sonar, post: 667849, member: 47153"] I was interested in purchasing a ftdx 1200 (in the past.)
