I have a GME TX4200 here. Used, but it has a replacement Mic and has been recently serviced by a professional technician.

$180 and it's yours

Thanks for the offer Gavin, but its a little bit out of my price range.

I was hoping for something a little older and cheaper. A bit like me really.

Hiya.

An antenna and if it's going to be used as a home-base, a 13.8V power supply.

13.8V power supply like one of those adjustable voltage transformer blocks from DSE?

What sort of plug is it?

Unless it is a regulated supply capable of at least 2A (make it 3 for good measure) I wouldn't. If you don't, a) you won't be able to transmit with it and b) it might cause interference. Go for a Jaycar supply like GH1379 (12VDC 5A DC OUTPUT - REGULATED and only $29.95) which should do the job.

Oops... I misread your post.

I don't think Gavin is for sale.
