Hi All...don't have the Yaesu's any more.....just TenTec Orion's ....the
difference between the Orion's and the Yaesu's
are night and day...we measured 40 db or more in band less interference
with the Orion's than the Yaesu's....significant...
Standarization is very very important...each station is equipped with the
Orion, a MicroHam Microkeyer interface, a computer with
USB sound card external interface(anybody know why), Henry or Alpha
amps...and lots of antennas...
