I will have  1 UHF vertex repeater that we are rotating out   that is a
work horse.. No  duplexer included  but its a 5000 series that works
wonderful  COntact  me if interested kc9gqr at mtco.com  Will be really
reasonable  we are doing an upgrade to digital so i will most likely have
some VHF  vertex machines available also.. along with a couple URI's by end
of year.
