I've gone back and forth over this amp for a month or so. But yesterday I pulled the trigger. I bought one. I was going to get one off eBay. Then it went out of stock. So I found one on Newegg.com. They were out. So after looking for at least an hour, I found one on a site in England. It was only $85.to my door. So instead of just listening to skip now, I'll be able to join in. My Uniden 980 should be happy with this. And I'll keep my Cobra 29 LTD Chrome off the amp for running locally.
