Hi Mike,
Saw your posting on the reflector and would like to add a note on the
Argosy.
I think there was discussion here last week about the Argosy finals, which
are Motorola MRF-477s, now being obsolete. I think somebody quoted a pair at
about $70 or so. That price would have to be considered in calculating the
cost of the Argosy with blown finals on e-Bay.
