Excuse me Jerry but I can't find the original post to this
item:
Question for Mike K9mi
1. Which version Corsair or Corsair II. You mention the manual
for II but not what the unit is.
2. Do you have a target price??
3. Obviously I have some interest although my other TT rigs
keep me busy. I'm a glutton for punishment!
BTW I have the same "market" problem here in Iowa. Strange
that Ten Tec has such spotty penetration. I've had long waits
to sell their gear while up grading to the next best and greatest.
I think the Omni VI+ will be my last but I did have a Corsair II
but never got much of a chance to use it when the Omni deal showed up.
