>>>>><\/strong>UPDATE: This radio has been sold!\u00a0 Thanks for your interest!<<<<<<\/strong><\/p>\n

I’m in the process of thinning the herd around here at the SWLing Post<\/em> HQ! I have dozens of portable radios that I rarely use–many I keep solely for review comparisons and benchmarking.<\/p>\n

I’ve always loved the PL-600, but I rarely turn it on these days. I have the PL-660, PL-680, PL-880 and a number of other similar portables for review comparisons.<\/p>\n

I used to lug this receiver around quite a bit–somewhere in my travels I scratched the display a bit.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It doesn’t hinder the ability to read the display–not cracked, just scratched–but it’ll turn off someone looking for a perfect specimen for sure. Indeed I’m sure there are other light scratches to be found.<\/p>\n

It comes with the original box, soft case, earphones, power supply and manual. Essentially, the full original package.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This unit, of course, works beautifully. In fact, I turned it on for the first time in a few months and check out what was on frequency!<\/a>\u00a0So–BONUS!–if you’re a spy, this might be your dream radio.<\/p>\n

I want this to be a good deal for someone, so I’ll ship to the first person who offers $40 or more (not too much more, okay?). Free shipping via the USPS. Payment via PayPal.<\/strong><\/p>\n

If interested, just contact me via email<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

>>>>><\/strong>UPDATE: This radio has been sold!\u00a0 Thanks for your interest!<<<<<<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I’d prefer not to ship internationally as it often involves a headache and would incur additional costs which I can’t predict. \ud83d\ude42 Thanks for understanding.<\/p>\n

All I ask is that you put this little radio on the air!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
