[Schell, Michael] Is $550.00 a good price? The SW rcvr compendium
sold by Universal Radio rates the RX-325 (civilian analog) as average
capability. Good luck in selling.

> Hello Everyone,

> I have for sale a beautiful TenTec SP-325 General Coverage Military

> The SP-325 is a .5 - 30mhz general coverage dual conversion PLL receiver
> offering 5 modes (usb,lsb,am,cw,fsk) with three selectivity bandwidths
> of 500hz, 2.8hhz and 6khz, two agc settings, digital readout via green

> screening and measures about 3.5x12x10.5 inches and weighs about 8 lbs.
> This one is serial number 513. The reciver has a fine user and technical
> manual combination. Its a nifty receiver and a joy to listen to
> especially on AM. Very nice audio.
>
> This receiver is in very,very fine cosmetic and electrical condition.
> Someone looking for an unusual receiver and a collectable TenTec rig
