Nobody has yet mentioned the HW16 with  the HG10 vfo, you can get a set
for about $100. Good working radio, puts out 50w which is more than
adequate, easily modified to 160 if necessary, not a whole lot of TVI.

Yeah, but it only covers 80, 40 and 15m. Doesn't have 20m, which is an important band for contests.


But it does show that one can make due with whatever one can afford (or enjoy).
