I was looking for something else but saw this:
?
?
It's an external S-Meter for certain Yaesu radios for under $10 with free shipping. I can't vouch for the quality but even if the accuracy is off, it might be useful for a relative strength S-Meter.?
?
It only lists a few Yaesu radios but I would think any that have the same port that this plugs into might work with it, and if not, you're only out less than $10. You could sell it on your ARRL section swap site or take it with you to a hamfest if you're selling these.?
?
I've seen almost an identical S-Meter for these radios selling for many times more than this price, so I have to wonder if the vendor of that one bought these here?
?
I was hoping to find one for Icom radios or my 767 GX but I really don't need one for the 767, just my Icom 705, 7300, or 7100.?

Please--no China bashing. I'm not of Chinese descent, and don't like what's happening in the SE Asian area, but this isn't a group were we allow political discussions. CHina is capable of making some very high quality items for a moderate price, and some low quality items at a very low price, of course. I'm typing this on a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, one of three that I have, and it's made as well as when IBM owned the ThinkPad trademark (before they sold the ThinkPad line to Lenovo). Since these are relatively inexpensive, I don't know if these are poorly made or not, but the price may be worth trying one if you have a radio that works with these.?
