I'm going to be buying a 2M hand-held within the month.  I am 
seriously considering a Santec ST-142, Lew McCoy reviewed it
in this month's CQ, and had nothing but praise for it.  I am
wondering if any of you out there have any experience with one?
Also, would it be better to get a Icom IC-02 instead, or even
a Kenwood or Yaesu model?  The Santec seems to have the most
features at a lower price than anyone else.  Also, anyone
know where the best place to buy one via mail order is?



                     Thanks,
