>> --------------------------------
>> Here is some information offered by those selling equipment:
>>
>>
>> Hi Dennis,
>>
>> I have been selling the PRC-174 & PRC-174S for past five years now.
>> I have purchased them surplus from third party that bought them from
>> the Israel Gov. I have ussually spent many hours fixing them up and
>> repainting them.
>> They run for about 1000$ for the RT-936 or 936S only.
>> The whole set was last sold for 1600$.
>>
>> Good work,
>>
>> Best 73s
>>
>> Ilan Yacobi 4X6MU Rehovot Israel
>> ---------------------------------
>> Hi Dennis
>> I have two kinds of HF radios for sale as follows.
>> PRC515 is GBP450 plus shipping
>> PRC2000 is GBP800 plus shipping
>> Information about these radios and accessories:
>> Since I lost my husband (who ran Combat Radio), I can no longer give any
>> technical advice on the PRC2000 or the PRC515, but my radio operator
>> friend has checked that these sets are working. The PRC2000 was GBP900
>> plus carriage and the PRC515 was GBP600 plus carriage, but because of the
>> lack of advice I am offering these radios at a reduced price.
>> The PRC2000 comes with antenna & antenna adapter (second-hand), handset
>> (black and new) and workshop manual on CD ROM (this incorporates the
>> operating manual).
>> The radio is new old-stock and unissued. This is one of the later-style
>> models that was produced of this particular radio (manufactured around
>> 1991/92). It has an integral battery box that can be filled with 'D' 
>> cells
>> (14.4 volts). Please note that this is the ideal voltage and should not
>> exceed 15 volts.
>> The PRC515 comes with Antenna, Battery, Headset & Mic, and Handset (I 
>> only
>> have a couple of handsets left, so it will be on a ‘first come, first
>> served’ basis). This radio came from the Yugoslavian army and was 
>> actually
>> used by them. As ex-army equipment, it is in used condition.
>> If you are interested and can let me have the nearest large town to you
>> and your zip code, I can find out the cost of shipping. For instance the
>> PRC2000 with full insurance is normally around GBP 125 to ship to the US
>> via courier.
>> Kind regards
>> Carol
>> G4ZWD
>> Please be aware that all the items for sale on Combat Radio
>> (www.combatradio.org.uk) are being sold to raise money for charity in
>> memory of my husband Mike Spicer. Please visit the charity's web-site
>> www.seashepherd.org.uk.
