[RTTY] RTTY radio

[Bill Williams]

Different cables on the 450D.  Also, the 450D was my first radio and I found that for a crowded contest the filters weren't good enough.  I found a used FT-1000MP for that price and find it to be just what I need.  I've been told that really high RTTY QSO rates stress it out (heat issues) but my little station hasn't reached that level yet hihi.  You already have the 1000, I think you'll be disappointed with the 450D.

I am considering a second radio dedicated to RTTY only. I need to keep the
cost about $1000.00. I have been looking at the FT-450D by YAESU. I have a
SignaLink USB interface into my YAESU Mark-5 Field. Anyone know if I can use
my present cable for the FT-450D from the Mark-5? Any issues I might
encounter or be aware of?

Thanks   Dick  KS0M
