Hmmm, since used rig prices vary radically and sometimes outrageously high
or low, that is a very loaded question.
How do you plan to use the rig? What features are you most interested in?
Base, mobile, portable, QRP, built-in antenna tuner? Do you want solid
state, twelve volts or a hybrid?
I like my 706 MK II ($400 US) but if I were to want a dedicated base, I
might prefer something different. The "G" sells for $800 new so used or
not, it fits your budget and is a good radio for the money.
73 for now.
Buck
