Hi Jim,

This one just had the dial restrung, so that is taken care of for 
another 10 years or so.

This one is in perfect condition, and well worth $325.  I sold another 
one for that several years ago.  The price you quote is for one in 
"average" condition.

Would you like it?

Thanks.

73,

Ken, W8EK
