Bruce & Capt_hook,
Sorry, but Copper is completely sold out of the Ranger 5054 & 5054DX 6 Meter Radios.
And the last I heard Ranger was going to discontinue making them.

How is the 5054? Is it basically like the 2950 in operation? I wouldn't mind an inexpensive 6M rig |

Racer_X,
Well I have had the 5054DX since last august and Love it WHEN the band is open.
Since last August it has less than maybe 5 hours total of talking as the band is open for a few minutes then down for days.
I think there is around 2 years left before the 6 Meter band is History so with this sunspot cycle I just do not forsee a lot of activity.
