Saw one used on ebay for $98 starting bid with 5 days to go and no returns!! . I'm "Just Okay" with ebay. And that Super Buddy thing looks complicated and the new one with correct module will be well over $700. Think I'm going to stick with DW watching a meter in the 5r with two-way talkie on her head. Or phone if we have service. I'm trying to save a bit of coin for now. Was told that I can use the old ViP612 as a signal finder. I'm going to try that later.
