My wife has transitioned from carrying one high-end VHF (Ham 2-meter) ICOM radio as well as one high-end UHF (GMRS+FRS) Connect Systems radio to a single dual-band Chinese TYT radio. That means her very well maintained Ham radio is available on a first come, first served basis. The CS radio is not worth enough to sell. I will just add it to the pool of GMRS loaner radios.
Her ICOM IC-F3161DS HAM radio comes with a charger and two batteries that are in excellent condition. While she carried this radio in her travel bag, it has very little use and no scars or marking anywhere. I do not know where the cover for the speaker-mike connection is, but fifteen bucks will buy a speaker/mic to fill the space, or contact ICOM for a replacement: https://icomamerica.com/en/support/PartsAndService/parts.aspx
I found a new one on closeout at BUYTWOWAYRADIOS.com for $399
CLOSEOUT SPECIAL!! TWO UNITS AVAILABLE!!
The Icom F4161/3161 is a high-end, high-performance 5 watt radio that is designed MDC 1200 compatibility. The F4161 / F3161 offers 512 channels and Basic LTR™ trunking and conventional mode operation. This is a feature packed radio for companies that need the most out of two way communications.
I also found one at UsedRadios.com for $195 that I listed below for all the details about these radios. It is also missing the connector cover, but it is sold out.
My habit with radios is to have two batteries, swapping one out when low and charging it while the other takes a turn running the radio. Therefore this radio includes two ICOM factory batteries with replacements costing $35 for imitations and $75 for ICOMs.
A bonus for Bitterrooters: This is programmed for all the local repeaters as well as common simplex frequencies. The code plug construction has already be done for you.
I think $200 is a fair price for the set. That price will take the radio right away. If you want to make a lower offer, feel free, but I will hold on for a bit before going below $200.
I will sell this only to FCC licensed Amateur Radio Operators.
