He advertised it on QTH as excellent and fully operational condition. I went to his Dobbs Ferry residence and picked up the unit and tried it out for 5 or 10 min. Steve presented himself as a FB Ham. When I got home I found the VFO would jump frenquency after a period of time say anywher from 10 min. to one hour. I called Steve and after a few dicussions with him, he suggested sending it to Ten Tec and would split the cost with me as the radio belonged to a friend of his and he was not aware of the problem. I sent the unit to Ten Tec and they replaced several items and a new PTO in the VFO. When I got it back I e-mailed, called and have sent letters to his two addresses with no responce to date.

Watch out for what you buy from him as he is not a man of his word and will not respond to you if you have a problem and he has to pay for it.
