[SECC] [SEDXC] Rig Recommendations for ~$500.00

Tue Aug 29 10:45:10 EDT 2006

I used a FT-757GXII for 3 years and worked tons of DX on it.  Great older
rig, and I had absolutely no problems at all.

You can find them for around $350.00 in good shape.

I guess if you ask 10 hams a question, you get 10 different answers. :)

Subject:	[SEDXC] Rig Recommendations for ~$500.00

Anyone have any HF rig recommendations for something that can be found
on the used market for around $500.00?

Primary interests: Chasing DX + Casual Contesting

Rig needs to be a reliable model that can be serviced easily if needed.

I'd like to get something a bit better, in the $1000 range, but it
just isn't going to happen.  I'm going to have a hard enough time
coming up with the $500 as it is.

Thanks
