Is there more to buy to make the rig work? Also, I can carry for delivery to Kokomo - Marion - Muncie - Anderson - Pendleton area.
The radio will work out of the box just the way it is.
You can enter freq & program it (ie. store feq) via the buttons on it.
That said it is a PITA to do it this way. It's much easier to use the free software and a USB program cable and the PC to program the little unit.
Thus why in this group buy we are also getting the cable.
