[TenTec] Paragon 585 near perfect for sale

[Ken Brown]

I have for sale a Paragon 585, with all the optional Ten-Tec (288, 285, 
282) filters. It is in near perfect condition, and is being serviced by 
Ten-Tec to repair a memory loss problem. When Ten-Tec is done it will be 
fully functional to Ten-Tec specifications. It will be shipped directly 
to the buyer from Ten-Tec. Ten-Tec says it will be four to six weeks 
until it is serviced. There is no RS232 board or Voice board. It has the 
standard Ten-Tec firmware, not the Giehl chip. I must admit I don't know 
whether it has the FM board. I can't look at it now, because Ten-Tec has 
it. I never used it in FM mode. I will email digital photos to anyone 
interested. This rig has never been in a smoking environment. I am 
asking $900, plus shipping. I invite you to compare this with what 
Ten-Tec asks when they have a use Paragon for sale. Keep in mind that 
the price Ten-Tec advertises in their used/demo announcements is for 
radios with only the standard filters, leaving three filter slots empty. 
You can watch this reflector to see what the going price is for used 
filters. Add 3X that filter price to what Ten-Tec sells a used/demo unit 
for and compare to what I am asking.
