I'd like to purchase one of these, at as low a price as is reasonable. I'm looking for a used one, or a pointer to a discount supplier. I've seen them advertised for $169.00. I want to copy rtty and CW, for casual SWLing, without using a dedicated computer system. I'm willing to consider other approaches. -- ....!hplabs!faunt faunt@hplabs.ARPA 415-655-8604 HP is not responsible for anything I say here.

I'm willing to consider other approaches. I believe that there exists, and i think from Kantronics, a "SWL" equivalent to the UTU, which has the transmit portions of the box removed, and probably has not been beefed up from a RFI susceptibility standpoint. So, if you NEVER plan to use the beast for transmitting, you might consider this. I will try to find the ad i saw for this.
