The big thing, as someone stated, is the price of crystals. If you only want to talk to one repeater and the Clegg is cheap ($25) it may be worth it. some of us still have Midland/Clegg/ crystal sets kicking around. What freq are you looking for?
But, your best overall bet is to pick up a synthesized radio with built-in PL deck. 73, Joe, K1ike Ray wrote: > Anyone on the list know if its a good idea to purchase a good used > crystal controlled rig for use on 220 ? > > I'm wanting to get on that band,without a huge radio investment. > I saw Clegg FM-76 listed for sale,as an example. > > respond thru the list or direct. > > n3pyj at windstream.net > > > Ray > >
