    Must be present to win. It's a koan.

    Was around for roughly 10 years. Not a bad run. TS-830S was only around for 8 years.

    Well, it would be a real inconvenience, I guess I could downgrade from Yaesu. My balcony Slinky won't know the difference.

    It must have been rigged.

    Does one have to be present to win?

    Yes. I recall when the 990 was first shown in Dayton. Like everything else when looking backwards, seems like yesterday.

    Is operational training included ?

    Seems there is more options/buttons on that rig to require the winner to attend training classes.

    Then there's all the shipping charges from Ohio to England :) and then probably the import duties into England

    Come on guys! What a wonderful prize. Why does there always have to be complainers about everything? The actual value? The brand? It's a prize for Cryin' Out Loud!!

    Don't forget that someone doesn't have to enter, or can refuse the prize. I can't answer your question about why people always have to complain; I wish I knew. It's not even a policy or rule change, it's a totally optional thing to enter. But, it's only 7 pages, long, so that's probably just background noise complaints normal for the forum, if people were really upset there would be up to 50 pages and multiple threads

    It’s like that joke…

    A Mom and son are walking along the beach. A big wave comes out nowhere and washes the boy away. The Mom looks to the sky and screams out loud why God have you taken my son and begs for his return, suddenly another big wave comes out of nowhere and the son is washed ashore safe and sound. The Mom looks to the sky and yells, “He had a hat on.”

    Well, that is one mighty nice first prize, right there, but I gotta tell you, I'd be happy winning one of the middling prizes. They're that good. Art- K9XI
