Hello Everyone,

Anyone know how to get the FT-990 output power down to 5 watts
for QRP contesting?

Not to mention that K5FUV was in London on last Friday when this thread
was started.  And I'm quite certain that the ARRL folks are not big enough
computer geeks to carry laptops around the world so they can jump right
on their work-related email.

On the other hand, the people that work that this place are a different
story.

I do note with interest that this thread doesn't have anything to do with 
contesting.
