From you posting are you saying you paid for the radio, but did not get
it???
This would be a violation of e-bays policy and I've seen them bann
someone for less.

Skipp,
Please - they are BRATs, not "braut"s... The term comes from the
German
word "bratwurst", for "fried sausage" (brat = fried, wurst =
sausage). OK -
deep breath... <sigh>
Sorry it seems I missed most everyone at Dayton - I was parading
around
Saturday with a big "Harrah's Casino" 15th anniversary t-shirt on, in
case
you happened to see me.
I stopped by at the Bades' booth location - SEVERAL times. Great
conversations every time I stopped there. Good to meet you both!!
(Doug -
sorry I mistook your dad for you - all I could read on his nametag
the first
day was the last name, and I "assumed"... ARRGH! Please know - I am
now on
a *QUEST*!!! Hehehehe I'll let you know what develops!)
I bought one of those 900 Decibel antennas for $75. When carrying it
out to
the truck to load up, all I could think of was hollering out "Me-Hoh!
Me-Hoh!" HAHAHAHA I only wish people would look around more - I don't
know
HOW many times I almost harpooned someone with that tube before I got
it off
property.
I saw one set of 2m duplexers being practically given away - the guy
was
pressing me to buy them on Friday (a 6-jug set) for $75. Shame I
didn't need
a 2m duplexer!!
One vendor inside was selling a MTX1000 (I think?) mobile on 900..
Wanted
$450, with NO accessories. I asked whether the mic on the rig was
included;
I was told no, it was a demo. When I asked what I was supposed to do
for a
mic, the answer was "eBay". I walked away. It was still sitting there
on
his table Saturday afternoon, so I assume he brought it home. That's
OK - I
really wanted an MCS2000 II or III, anyway...
The MSF's there were a tad high for my liking. (So I'm a cheapskate -
I
admit it! Hehehe) I was trying to find a UHF machine for a friend to
use
on GMRS - saw a 40W MSF station but the guy wanted $500 and wouldn't
come
down. Maybe he made a deal later on, but by then I had spent some of
my
"budget" on other items... Was thinking of grabbing up one of the
Mastr-II
machines I saw, but they were on 411 and I was pretty certain they
wouldn't
move up far enough for use on GMRS. Same guy had a lot of Taits, but
again,
I wasn't sure whether they move up far enough for my needs... nor am
I
familiar enough with them to know what model I'd need.
All in all, I had a great time. This was my first time, but
definitely
won't be my last! Next year, we need to coordinate a "dinner meeting"
or
something - if only a specific day/time in front of the BRAT vendor.
