Hi,
I have had a week of bade decisions. First, I bought a used PRO-668 for a good price on eBay. Second, I threw away the original packaging before I fully tested everything about the radio. The seller offered a $25 refund, but is balking at accepting the radio back without the proper packaging.
I discovered that the USB connector appeared to be broken. It had an intermittent connection, and seemed loose. So, without cracking open the radio, I am pretty sure that it needs to be replaced.
I contacted RS, and of course, they don't repair their products, and suggested I post something here. I haven't heard back from Whistler yet. Does anyone have a company that they would recommend for this type of repair? Some have suggested talking to one of my local ham clubs.
Any ideas?
