Condor 16

Since I swapped my Icom 910H for a Kenwood TS-850, I did lose my 2m/70cm rig. And in a earlier post I reported a fried Yaesu FT817.
I’m not that sad about not having anything to transmit on 2/70. I hardly ever use these frequenties. Not my thing. But…. I’m still doing the morsecode course and the teacher gives feedback on 2m. So I need to be able to response to that.
Therefore I bought a Condor 16 the other day. As former PMR transceivers they are very cheap and extremely robust. They are pretty easy to convert to 2m. Mine is already converted. I must say, they work pretty good! And only 40 euro’s for a set, a speaker and a microphone. Good deal!

That’s a nice price for such a set. How is the CW practice? Are you improving? GL, 73, Paul PC4T
