I am NOT buying another radio

[filkerdave]

I don't care how good the price is on that lightly used KX2.Not buying another radio

I have a KX3. The KX2 would suit me better, but the post-Brexit drop in the pound has made it look even more expensive here...

[filkerdave]

I like the KX3 a lot. I've never played with the KX2 but it looks even more suited to what I want to do, same as you. (Mind, I *love* my MTR)

This is why I've never gotten into ham radio, despite the fact that it's exactly the sort of thing that would appeal to me.

[filkerdave]

It's possible to force yourself to not buy another radio ;)

[bikergeek]

Yeah but I have enough expensive hobbies. :)

[filkerdave]

That IS a hazard.

[filkosopher]

Have fun with your new radio!! :-P

Pthththth

Of course not! Steve Weber, KD1JV hasn't got his new one ready for sale yet. It's, apparently, going to be a bit different from the recent ATS/MTR offerings in that it's a single bander, Arduino based and the construction id going to be mostly through hole.

[filkerdave]

Hmmm..single bander? Not sure I see the advantage of that. I like switching bands as propagation changes!

O-Ghu, that sounds SO familiar!

Quoth the radio widow.

Heh, I'm sure! I already have 3 radios that I use regularly. I really don't NEED a 4th.

FT-817 (doesn't get a lot of use as its power button is gone).
FT-450AT (gets use when I'm in 5Z)
706-MkIIG (main rig at home)
KX3 (main portable rig, and also for 5MHz at home)
Sundry kit rigs (mainly for the soldering)

There's always room for one more...
