    The X5105 is gone, sadly but had to go haven't used it enough lately to justify keeping it.

    G90 still available.

    7300 sale is on hold for now, today I got and installed the PTRX-7300 panadapter and connected it to my Airspy HF+ I had lying around doing nothing so I decided to give this a go and what a difference having the big waterfall on a 26" screen vs the 4 inch screen on the 7300.

    Seeing the splatter from a HAM this afternoon 15 Khz each side was just crazy altogether.

    I wouldn't suggest someone buy a new IC-7300 + panadapter + Airspy HF+ or equivalent, Look for something like the Sun SDR 2 DX 100 Watt SDR, it looks amazing.

    Anyway, I had a short test today and listening to the Audio out on the sdr software not the 7300, the NB was much better than the 7300, it actually eliminated the electric fence noise the 7300 can't + the DNR is far better than the 7300 also. So this might convince me to keep the 7300 for a while longer, it's definitely a nice upgrade.

    I have to get CAT working through the SDR software so clicking on the waterfall will control the radio.

    When it's all up and running properly I'll take a few pics and maybe a video.

    Ah, I can't access that site, as I do not yet have a callsign, so can't register on the forum, and the classifieds are invisible to those not logged in.

    Out of curiosity, what was the advertised price?
