Re: Tristar 515M
That's a lot of money for a faulty set with a limited frequency range.
Leave it to the nobs with more money than sense I think.

I think the reason it is so expensive is it is a German modded Muller Electronis version that has a VFO fitted.

which bit of "the board is a Stag 357/WKS 1001/Colonel FR-360 etc etc.." did you not see
the rig is nothing more than a Stag 357 or other similar boarded rigs, like elctronicas and more..

Nowt wrong with Colonal FR360s, one of my most liked SSB radio......not got FM neither which is a bonus, stops Numpties buying them and hammering the ass out of them on 19.

Re: Tristar 515M
A radio well worth geting your hands on if your a collector of radio's
As a lot of you know these sets are based on President adams's and they work just as well as a President adams and for the Colonal FR360s there just as good as an President adams
