Already in the ebay overpriced loonies thread.

Nice but it is a sub £200 radio IMO.

There is no such thing as a Fidelity 1000 which is too good to scrap.

You just wouldn't would you. Yes, it's a superb example. But the price tag simply isn't justifiable for what you're getting.

I bought a boxed like new ICOM 706 MK2-G for the same money and a much more desirable NOS 148 GTL-DX for considerably less.
Never, ever, ever....bloody anything ever!

Far too many radio's to list here. But I do own a legal one...
