Greetings To All:
 
I have a question I'd like to run by all of you. I was talking with Don,  
AA5AU or should I say asking him for advise and he suggested I post it on here.  
After all...we have to very best on here, right!  :-) 
 
Our club here in Troy is looking to purchased several new HF radio's for  use 
at Field Day or for other emergency operations. We were looking at the Icom  
IC-718 and the Yaesu FT-840. I was wondering if any of you had experience  
with either of these radios, preferably under multi station setup like Field Day  
operation. We'll be using both SSB & Digital operations. I was really  
concerned on how well the front ends would hold up. So far it looks like the  Icom 
wins the battle but I'm waiting to hear from many of you. 
 
Any/All suggestions would be greatly appreciate!
 
Thank You
Bill Eddy, NY2U
