Scottish Microwave Round Table (GMRT)
Apple iMAC M3 + 24” monitor with built-in Retina Display
Purchased in May this year but I’m struggling to get my head around the system!
It’s an M3 iMac running Sequoia version 15.1.
Both the HD and monitor are in “as new” condition.
Definitely too much for me so offering for sale at £875 or would exchange for the best HF & 6m radio offered (TS-590SG or similar)
