FINALLY! I've been waiting over two years to get one! Anyone know the
price? The TT web site indicates $696, which is a very good price and about
one hundred dollars less than the original estimate.
I am anxious to hear of any first impressions. Hopefully some of the new
owners are also list members and will comment on the 526.

A couple of friends picked up the new unit in Dayton.
Nothing has been posted here yet......
So --- Got a chance to see it and play with it for only a few minutes....
Receive is great. Great layout. Spectacular sound - no external speaker
needed.
There seems to be a few "birdies" in the unit while spinning the dial and
Intermod rejection on the 2 meters was not spectacular or supurb. The radio
picked up a local repeater on a simplex frequency 900 away from the repeater
frequency. It was like they were on simplex.
More to come - first impressions to get the thing started.
And I Only had a few minutes with it.
Anyone else have more to report.
