    Payment Method will be PayPal

    2 - Black @ $49.90 x 2 = $99.80
    2 - AAA battery containers @ $6.20 x 2 = $12.40
    2 - Extra battery - 1600 mah @ $8.80 x 2 = $17.60

    Total of $129.80 + Shipping (Probably needs to be a large USPS flat rate box at $16.85?) = $146.65

    Let me know if Shipping needs to be adjusted. I'm weird about boxes and like to keep everything, so if it can be shipped in retail packaging that would be great and I'll cover whatever added shipping there is. If not... NO BIG DEAL!

    POSSIBLE Radio Drop to INDY AREA!!!

    Updated & PM sent to GLOCKMAN23C for his order.

    Also there is a 75% possiblity that I or another NWI INGO member will have to be in Indy on 01 JUN 2013 for an ammo pick up for the NWI INGO Youth Day event. We are picking up the ammo near the Indy 1500 from the looks of it. So if INDY area members want we could take your radios to you.

    Provided the radios arrive in time.

    This sounds like a great deal, but I have several questions before I commit:

    After reading your post, I did some research and I read on a different forum that a volunteer fire department was using this for "off-duty" use. Can I do the same (I'm a firefighter) without a license?

    I have never programmed a radio before. How hard is it and are there resources for the technically challenged?

    Does it scan?

    Thanks ahead of time.

    I have never programmed a radio before. How hard is it and are there resources for the technically challenged? Not too bad once you learn chinese english and the software

    Does it scan? It has a scan function, but it is not a "scaner," it only scans the amatuer freqs, not public safety

    Thanks ahead of time.
    Hope this helps

    Thank you Bill B and Jedi for the replies.

    Your tech support, lol.

    I am in NWI and can pick the radio up once they come in. FYI, I cannot PM yet due to post count.
