I have - up for sale - my LD5. It's a very good little rig, excellent filtering and DSP! However, there is no reason for me to have an SSB capable rig, because I do not use it. Mine has hardly been used, has no scratches, dents, bullet holes or elephant foot prints on it - runs very well. Amazingly, I've only used it inside. You can respond by answering this posting and/or pm'ing me.
It lists for $575 but I'll sell mine for the unbelievably low price of only $450, shipped in CONUS, in it's original factory shipping box, with all standard accessories. (Including something funny called a 'mike-row-foughn', which I have used once to test the rig , then put it back into the box. "Sounds Great!" is what the fellow said of it's audio.) there is a possibility of a trade for HF gear.

If no quick action here on RP, I'll post it for more money on the usual ham sites.

Hi Ray,
Do you still have the LD5 for sale? I'm going to buy one, it may as well be from you.

Hello Ray,
I was going to ask what you were planning on getting as a replacement, but you answered that question! I sold my KX3 for similar reasons.. My K1 was all I needed. Now I am looking at the FT-817nd for sailing, but only because I want 14300 and maybe try Winlink.. It could be used as a backup to my IC-M700 too.. I think I fried my tuner (AT-120) so.. Something else to fix..!

Hi Joel,

Thank you , Joel.
You did exactly what you said you would and very quickly too! I have YOUR LD5 boxed in the original, factory padded shipping box with all accessories. It took a while to get it's microphone out of my radio storage case: I used it once to confirm that SSB worked (it did and the audio had good 'punchy' reports.) then I put it away. I really am a Morse-o-holic and there is no cure. ::)
UPS, insured to you tomorrow.
