I have one of these as a back up as well. Can't say enough good things about it. At $150, that's a hell of deal!!!
 
I bought one last year for a few hundred and its great. I even used one to track a VOR when my crapped out on me last year.
 
Just to test out the signal strength, I've done a couple of complete patterns with all the calls to see if anyone could tell any difference from the regular radio. They couldn't. Keep in mind, we're talking close range, but still. It's a great transceiver.

I hope someone jumps on this at $150.
 
I wish you were selling it a month ago I just bought one and your right whoever buys it for 150 is getting a hell of a deal.
