The thing that got me excited was the 440Mhz IF and these thing have a
disc yagi of sorts poking out the front of the DC.
cheers

Hi Tim...
It almost looks like your answer is right here if your specs are correct,
450 MHz should yield 2401.00 right out of the box, unless I'm missing
something?
Sounds like a keeper to me.
