well one of the posters was absolutely correct... each and every ham has his own idea of what is good and what is not.
There are obviously hams in your area, somebody gave you the test.
Get with the hams in your area to help you in selecting a good second had rig and helping you select an antenna that will work in your QTH.
If you get 10 hams together you are going to have at least 11 opinions....your budget and the used market in your area are going to determine what radio you wind up with...find you an elmer and take advantage of the help he offers...
I have several older rigs I keep around for just this type of thing...when I elmer someone and trust them, I loan them a radio to get the feel of things...you never know what kind of help you might get until you get out there and look for it.
