Alfonso Faustino: Used Motorola Transceivers: eBay: SnarlingRabidDog5150: TalkWave Communications

Generally speaking, I don’t trust sellers on eBay; hence, I seldom make purchases on eBay — I prefer Amazon.

Alfonso Faustino: Yaesu VX-6R

My Yaesu Submersible VX-6R was my very first amateur HAM transceiver; and, it has been one of the best purchases I ever made with respect to Yaesu products. I bought this unit, brand new, 2017, and to this day, it works like brand new. For a HAM operator, this tri-band analog-only (no digital platform) Super…
