Title: Need: Alinco EJ-50U (TNC for DR-620T 2m/70cm xcvr)

Mine's perhaps a request that's a little unusual for this forum... but maybe there's a Radio Amateur in the group located near a Ham Radio shop with what I'm looking for in stock or easy to order-in.

Our local (Sydney, Australia) Alinco dealer - Andrews Communications - lists the product on his web site, but just hasn't come through for us in getting one on.

He's apparently waiting to accummulate a "large enough" order to submit to Alinco... but that could take YONKS!

Our local radio club is aiming to take APRS tracking to our local, volunteer Air Sea Rescue organisation, and we need a TNC-equipped radio for the job.

I found & bought the radio on eBay, but no TNC was included with the deal; hence our current need.

Who's got one or can get one shipped from USA?

If we can get the details of a supplier with one to send (or who generally stocks them), we can make the arrangements from here to order it.

So, who's a good, reliable Alinco dealer near you?

(Oh, for those who don't know the Ham Radio jargon... "TNC" refers to a radio-modem.)

TIA.

PS Actually, a local high school teacher has graciously donated a GPS to our project. We're not averse to a similar donation of a EJ-50U TNC, we'd be happy to pay a fair price for a (preferably new, as the radio is also new, but - in any case) WORKING unit from a shop that ships to Australia.
