Ranger 2950DX arrived today and I have to say it's absolutely spot on.

Happy days

I have only heard one Optima on air and it sounded terrible on FM. Way too much deviation.

Maybe that's why it's been "fixed" ?

[Mudslinger]

They are fixed because normally they are too quiet. It had been fixed too much by the sound of it.

[cb4ever104]

Yeah . Now that I think about it I remember reading that on their website , or somewhere else .

[Mudslinger]

Sounds like the mod may go from one extreme to the other. I think the mod made them do +/- 3.5Khz, which might be enough to make them sound horrible on some radios.

When new they were +/- 1.5khz

Looks like the guy has thought , hmmm supply and demand and hike the price up

Same seller as the last ones. Didn't pay that for 2 of mine including the postage the other week.

[CBR1100XX]

I think he's doubled the price roughly , oh well good luck to him as we all like a bargain

Well we've all got ours, and at considerably less than the new price. However it could still be argued that it's still a reasonable price for a very good quality piece of NOS kit.

The seller listed ten previously, so seemingly another five have turned up...

[CBR1100XX]

The price the guys paid last time was realistic IMO but is it now worth about £55 .I suppose he sold the last 10 quickly and thought , I'll ask more now , as said good luck to him if he can find people these days that will pay his asking price , not me I'm afraid .

I just wish I could find a heap of NOS lol .

They'll sell. Maybe not as quickly, but they will. RTI's prices will no doubt assist them!

Oh well guys , I made an offer based on his last price and here's the reply , I think as astradyne has said above , RT prices will help him in the end .


DECLINED EUR 35.00
Hi no problem I sold the last batch at a different price. I ve listed new ad with other ones at this price I was selling them too low
