Well, I might look for one once I come off my craigslist hiatus later on. Oddly, you rarely see one of those around my area. Now the 40-180, 41-280, and 42-380 series you see a lot, often over-priced. Good radios in their own right. I so far have a 40-180 (not working) and a 42-280 which does work...mostly. Almost had a beautiful looking 42-380, but I didn't want to pay the nearly $200 price tag!
No matter where you go, there you are.
