Keith,
You can find the Corsair II's for sale on QTH.COM for about $475 or so.
Then there is the power supply, model 960, then there is the external VFO,
model 263, and lots of filter slots (1.8KHz, 500Hz, 250Hz). People who have
them seem to love them (I really like mine!). Some people have more than
one - take a look at Steve Hunt's shack.

I am envious of Steve. ;-)

That's the radio for me! Someday I hope to find a nice one in good
condition. I was thinking of going in on the board purchase just in case I
find a nice one without a working display.
