Tommy, sorry to hear about the about the burn. I guess we all take a
risk when it's someone we don't know. Hams selling to hams should be a
trustworthy adventure. However, I guess that is not always the case. I
was lucky a few weeks ago to get an Omni 5, 962PS and desk mic for a
very fair price. I would sure do everything you could letting the
"people in charge" know what happened and at the very least, leave some
negative feedback on this guy.

In reality it was another story: Reciver dead, PTO slides and nead a
rebuildt, a non-standard knob on the front conectet to a unknown pc-board in
place of the noice-blanker.
I have in many years recived service from Ten Tec, and I´m sure this is not
the "factory" it has visited, they will newer ship a rig like this. So it
was a lie. The seller, Mr Bockmier in Illinois, refuse to take it back -no
suprise it is a boat ancor.
Lesson is: You can´t be to careful shopping at the net. And stick to this
site, after all we are all amateurs and gentlemen.
