I've tried out several counters. The M1 with backlight is the best, the
backlight flashes on when it locks onto a frequency. It's also the most
sensitive counter.

To: ham-equip@ucsd.edu
I paid $350 (shipped) VIA the rec.radio.swap news group for a TR-4Cw
that is in excellent like new condition about two months ago. You may
find a TR-4 for a little less because it is a little older vintage.
There is a Drake and tube radio net on 80 Meters (3.865 MC.) on
Saturday night at 8:00 P.M. It originates out of Ohio... Drake
country...
Good Luck....
