they go for close to retail. There is on on there now with 4 days to go
and it is at $555 with 14 bids.


Yah! I looked at that one (infact that is the only Pactor on eBay right
now).
Well at least this fellow is offering to include all the interface cables
for my tranceiver model, gotta be worth something..

In the end, I think I will pass for now.. I can do my email from shore as
long as I'm coastal cruising.. Just need the SSB for weather stuff..

I found that one of the greatest uses of the PACTOR-3 mode is
to receive WX data on demand. It is the original source material
so it is crystal clear, unlike what is received in the usual FAX manner.
Sailmail has a capability to do this but it is not as good as that
available via Winlink. At least it wasn't a year ago when we were cruising.
