I'm not sure of the proper forum in which to mention this.  I am hoping to reach as many "locals" as possible.  

I have a late edition of the Yaesu FT-450D for sale, with power supply if desired.  The MARS mod has been  done professionally.   Due to shipping costs and less than honorable folks out there I would prefer to deal locally.   In other words, if you think you might like such a rig in pristine shape selling for less than what many are asking and would like to try it out in person before you buy -- send me an email at

w4dbva@...  or  to dbvaughan@... and we can chat and arrange a meeting if you like.

Thanks and 73, 

Bryan,  W4DBV
