I gave a nice RAL away at Rickreall hamfest about two years ago. There was zero, zero interest in anyone buying it at any price - - which i surely should have forseen. I saw another RAL given away free at an NWVRS swapmeet near Portland OR last year. I was glad it did find a home. I got a free SG-297, which is a real nice instrument but weighs like one cubic foot of solid iron.
