Ht1000 $$

[BillQuinn]

how much would an ht1000 cost and is it still manufactured?

check out ebay and the for sale fourm on here would be the best place to get them. The HT1000™ Series Portable Radio is no longer manufactured by motorola.

search for the ht2000 turned up nothing


I would personally go with the Vertex standard VX-150, Compact, rugged, and a MUCH larger memory than the ht1000, plus it has a digital display

There isn't an HT2000. There is an MT2000 and MTS2000.

And if he's not a ham, why buy a ham transceiver? Last time I checked, a plain old scanner worked just as good.

A ham radio or commercial grade radio (used for monitoring the railroad) will always beat the reception of a scanner.

and the vx150 is cheaper than a decent scanner

Take a look at the Vertex vx-600 and vx-900 same size and feel as the HT-100 except lighter, cheaper and more features.

The HT-1000 has been discontinued but they are plentiful on the used market, one caveat is that only certain revisions are capable of narrowband which will soon be mandatory.
