[Airport Widow]

Hey Guys,

Just a quick thanks for your help. Managed to find a new 73XLT as recommended for $165 inc postage from Contact Communications.

Highly recommend them. Ordered it Monday night and it arrived on Wednesday!

Hubby is ecstatic and has managed to tune into the planes flying over our house on their approach to Mascot. Can't get the tower from home, but should be able to from my parent's house which is nearer.

So I'm widowed again on Saturday morning as he is headed to Mascot to test it out properly. But he's taking our 3yo daughter with him, so at least I can sleep in!

So again, thanks everyone for making the decision easy and quick and putting a massive smile on his dial!
