purchased in 08 and had the mods done by a radio station engineer in louisville,KY however i forget his name. He is well known througout the FM DX community.He did a marvelous job installing new murata filters specifically for dxing. also intalled a rg-59u female recptical for lower loss.This tuner is extremely sensitive and selective. RDS locks real quick and you can also widen the bandwidth for fidelity. The physical condition is pristine as it was always covered and disconnected when not in use.I only had it on in the dx season for tropo and E's otherwize it was put away. I paid new 250.00 plus 70.00 for the mods.but will let it go for 175.00 including shipping.I will also throw in a yamaha tu-500 in good working condition with no mods. thanks for looking. If seriously interested i can send pics. good dx and best regards. I remembered his name, girard westerberg. Well known DX engineer in louisville. Theese tuners are now selling between 375.00 and 600.00 depending how hard you look.
