You can pick up programmed UHF Desktracs on ebay for ~150, programmed. Like Joe said, Desktracs are not high-duty cycle repeaters (not good for Ham Radio) , as well they are not NB capable so commercial uses are about out. I sold my two for $100 each, unprogrammed. -Brian / KF4ZWZ On Sun, Aug 15, 2010 at 10:29 PM, burkleoj joeburk...@hotmail.com wrote: I don't know about your neck of the woods, but one of the local ham groups picked up a Desktrac already tuned on the ham band to their frequency for $125 with the service manual.
