Re: New member, undecided but tempted!

Well, my call to them was much more friendly than the last time. I ordered 
it today from calfornia and it is in stock and will ship tomorrow for a 
whopping  $14.00

Thanks to all who replied.   Looking forward to getting it back in service.

Hi Garry,

I have the same problem and contacted the official importer for Italian 
market, they were very nice, they said the ppart is available at the cost of 
16€+tax, the only drwback is that they need to order it from Japan and it 
takes 60 to 90 days.

This is the email of the guy I talked to [email protected]

Ciao!!
Antongiulio

I have a 500 an need a new back case and battery door as mine is cracked. 
Any idea of where to get one. I tried the company an they certainly don't 
have good customer service.

I don't care about or necessarily agree with the negatives. It's a great 
little radio and if something happened to it I'd buy another one. I listen 
to the Coast Guard and SSB aero HF frequencies as well as UHF military 
aircraft and it works well for me.
