Speaking of the FT-847, is there any evidence of a click problem
in that radio. I used one during the Stew Perry Contest and nobody
complained, but I know that absence of evidence doesn't always 
mean evidence of absence (I haven't had a chance to listen to it 
on a second receiver). Any reports would be appreciated as I am 
planning on using the rig again during the CQ 160 CW contest.

Thanks,

Mike, W4EF....................................
