I set my maximum bid to 1/2 of the current MSRP, plus $0.01 (just in case someone else was following the same rule of thumb).

Assuming that it arrives in working order, that will give me the ability to talk with subs and surface units at PSubs conventions. I'll need to pick up a second one to enable diver to diver comms, and a CDK-6 kit to optionally make one of those into a surface unit.<br clear="none"><br clear="none">This stuff adds up. I may have to sell my hardwire comms to pay for it, which I am hesitant to do.
