The last one I bid on, on ePay, went for over $170! I have a Scout 680. Another alternative to the 755 VFO, is the Heathkit VF-1. I use one with my Scout 680. It has 3 VFO output ranges: A.) 160m (good for 160 & 80/75m); B.) 40m (good for 40, 20, 15 & 10m); C.) 6.9 MHz (for the old 11m band). Prices for the VF-1 are usually pretty good. 73, Ellen - AF9J ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
