I'll have to admit, my first allmode wasn't cheap...  I paid $450 about
5 or 6 years ago for a mint IC251A.  More recently, however, I swapped
some monitor repair work and a 2-meter FM rig for a TR9000.  And I was
present at the estate auction where the very same TR9000 was purchased
for $75 before it made it's way to me.

73,

Jim
