I have two BC-221-AKs which I use for alignment of recievers.

I have two LMs, which I bought for parts for $9.99/pair, but when I got them, they were 
complete although one was missing a cal book.

I also have one of the **-173 VHF jobs, which works very well.

So: total: 5, 2 of which are in use, two more available as standby rigs, one for parts.
