A recent posting here mentioned the Narco HT-830 hand-held portable
transceiver, and that it can be *used* for navigation, not just pick
up the nav signals.  Since I am about to get my IFR rating, and I do
not want to fly in IMC without a back-up radio, I am interested in
comments from those who have used the HT-830.  Flying did a review
of hand-held's, and they seem to have liked it, but I'd like to get
some more opinions.  Also, if you especially liked or disliked some
other radio, I'd be interested as well.

Please e-mail to me; if response is sufficient, I'll summarize for
the net.

Thanks in advance!
