Locally, there is a guy who bought a TS-590S and decided to keep his
TS-870S. Initially, he was selling it for $1200 with the TXCO. I was
going to buy until Glenn (AE0Q) pointed the way. Last I heard, the
price had been reduced to $1000. No idea if he sold it or not. Still
waiting for my Eagle which should be one to two weeks out.
