- I got an FT-817 not too long ago. I haven't done much with it yet and still have to do some experimenting. My main interest with it is as an IF rig for microwave transverters with a 144 or 432 MHz IF

- I don't have one but it's a favorite for satellite ops because you can use it on the "linear" sats as well as the FM sats. -- Peter Laws | N5UWY | plaws plaws net | Travel by Train! _________________
