Hello Ralph
In ref: to your msg about the SX-28. I have friend that might have interest
in the radio. First is it still available ? Second can you supply jpgs of
the radio? Third how bad off is it? Sense he is vision impaired I would have
to be the one to work on it for him to get it back up to specs. Advise.
Regards, Rock
