Motorola XTN 446 PMR radios

kdouglas

Got a few of these for Na Taibhse and I've a couple left over, so they're up for sale.

Two motorola xtn 446 radios, these are a good quality radio, they are really solid handsets and in a different league to the kind of stuff you'd buy in Argos. Normal retail price for these with a charging cradle is 250euro.

Full review available here (it'll take a minute to load.)

Both radios function perfectly fine, one has some minor marks and "M4" lightly engraved into the back, as pictured below, price for this one is 140euro.







The other one is in good as new condition, even has the plastic cover over the LCD screen, this has some slight wear marks on the back, again, as pictured below, price is 160euro







(Click the images for a larger version.)

Both radios come with a brand new, boxed, charging cradle. Radio's themselves are not boxed. Manual is available here

i would be very interested in buying one, are you able to post down to kerry?

kdouglas

yea, sure, registered post would be 12.25 according to the anpost website (estimated weight of 1.5kg)

Puding

ok i will more than likely take one then need to just confirm 100% with the other half ..........sorry sorry the bank in regards to funds

kdouglas

OK, just let me know which one you want, until then the sale is still pending

Hi Mate,

I'll take the 160 one off you.
Can use it next weekend in Wales.

I work in Clonskeagh, anywhere you wanna meet or would you rather post?

Cheers

Utreg: That's grand, I only work around the corner in Dundrum/Windy Arbour so I'm sure we can meet to arrange collection. I'll PM you.

Puding: You didn't specify which one you wanted, but since you were checking with the "bank" on funds, I'll guess you'd probably prefer the 140 one? Hope this is ok with you?

Puding

im fine with the 140 one cosmetic stuff with the case is not a problem with me as long as it works

and i want to confirm that i will 100% take the 140 off your hands

kdouglas

grand, you have a pm

I've found the an Post site overestimates everything.

I'll take one (either one) if the others don't want them. Money waiting.

kdouglas

I'll let you know if either of the above pull out but at the moment a sale is agreed on both.

Ah not a bother kd, pity I didn't see the ad earlier though. I'm really looking for one of these.

As a matter of interest, where did you get those radios. looking for some but hard to find.

kdouglas

ebay, but it requires lots of patience and a keen eye for what you want

maplins had them in Belfast a week ago - on special offer for March/April. The offer is now over as I was looking for them just last night.

They were reduced to £129(€165) from about £180 I think.

Should have got one but I bought the cheapo doro radios from them instead for £30.:rolleyes: They are "ok" and come with a charger and ear/mic pieces but the quality/clarity from the XTN is far superior.

+1 for ebay - i picked up a pair of them with chargers and headsets for 190 delivered last week , they are out there you just need to keep searching

I picked up a pair of cheapy Binatones for the moment. Will invest in more expensive ones at a later stage. Cheers for all of the advice.
