[Repeater-Builder] Re: OT: Value of IC-22A and IC-22U

The Icom IC-22A is crystal-controlled, so has ultimate flexibility (at the 
price of crystals).
The Icom IC-22U came after the IC-22S (23 channel with diode matrix board) -- 
I had the 22S one in late 1970s (popular unit at the time).

Generally, I have seen them sell on eBay for ~ $15 to $50 largely based upon 
condition (if included box, manual, microphone, cosmetic condition, etc.).  
Neither unit had CTCSS as a standard option (add-in board, like ComSpec SS-64, 
required).

Keep in mind that the 22S and possible the other variations had a 
problem of intermittant solder joints on the steel pins that were used 
as feedthrus on the circuit boards.
