(I choose to use Family and Friends option on PayPal so the seller got the full $100, I paid the PayPal fee myself and lost any buyer protection for the transaction – it’s a choice I made, no regrets.) I pulled the trigger and sent the seller the requested payment, $100 via PayPal.
I quickly Google’d the radio and found that it was 32 channels, 45 watts, covered 146-148 MHz and it appeared that CPS radio programming software and cable were readily available. It was in great shape, it came with all new accessories (microphone, mounting bracket and power cord), it had a “split” that included half of the 2 meter band, supported “wide” and “narrow” FM modulation (more current radios only support “narrow” FM and sound weak on ham bands) and the price seemed right ($100 shipped). The other day I was flipping through the For Sale listings on QRZ.com and came across a radio that appealed to me on several levels. EMT radio “Go-box” (as we would call it today) called the “Biophone” featured in Emergency and the full-on tight shot of the Motorola head unit on the dash of the police cruiser in Adam-12.
