Thanks to all for the responses. I forgot to mention this one has the CW
filter (500 Hz I believe). I understand the PTOs have been a problem but
this one seems surprisingly stable. I bought a PTO rebuild kit from TT
thinking I would do it, but it doesn't seem to need it and I just don't have
the time. I got it from a neighbors yard sale, he's no longer into ham
radio. It really is a neat little radio but I have too many now. So I
guess it (and Mic, Spkr/PS) will have to go some day.

Typ. filter prices seem to be $60 to $70 each; power supply $125 to $140;
rig maybe $400
Stability of the PTO can be a big factor in price, since unstable / drify
PTO can indicate a PTO rebuild is needed (kit $30 or so, plus time/effort to
rebuild. Not sure what Ten-Tec charges now but it's not a technically
difficult thing for owner to do... just takes time)

Jim's note on the Corsair II price reminds me I've got a spare one sitting
here to sell:
Corsair II (model 561) in beautiful condition, no PTO rebuild needed, no
scratchy potentiometers, needs nothing.
$390 plus shipping at actual cost.
Filters available.
