I have a TS140S in good shape that I have 225.00 in if they would be
interested, and they could pay me out.

Subject: [TenTec] Looking for "cheap" rig or honest and patient ham
Hey Gang,
I've befriended a new ham who knows CW, and is working to get on HF. He's
sadly only on VHF. He's looking for his first rig and I think he and his XYL
are just making ends meet.
I told him that I saw $300 as about the floor on anything worth buying. What
do you think? He only has about 1/3 of that put toward a rig and is selling
some surplus items to raise more.
So is there anyone out there with an Omni C or similar that would be priced in
the range I suggested, who would be willing to consider holding the rig while
he paid for it? Would the Omni C be a good rig, or discourage him?
I'm looking at IC-725s, TS-530S, 520S, 820/830, but thought I'd check here.
When my XYL and I were selling my stepson's old saxophone we asked $300, I
think, which was fair. The girl who bought it had $75 to put down. We were so
taken by her enthusiasm toward playing that after she handed my XYL the $$, my
XYL said, "Here, you better take the sax home tonight, and by the way, it's
paid in full."
Maybe one of you will have such a moment in this case. I just don't have any
extra rig!
73,
Art
