Hello Yaesu fans,

I am getting real close to purchsing one of the FT-900/CAT rigs, but 
would first like to get a little input from those of you who are 
already using this rig.  Here goes...



(1)  How is this rig on CW.  

     (a)  Tone?
     (b)  QSK operation (noisy, overworked relay OR quiet)?
     (c)  Dot chopper?  That is, does it try to abbreviate the first 
           dot send in a string?
     (d)  CW filters and bandwidth?
     (e)  Audio quality (internal AND external speaker)?



To all who reply to this request, I send a big THANK YOU!  The talk 
that I get from HRO and AES about this rig all sounds great, but I 
put a lot more value on the real-life experiences of all of you YAESU 
group members.

73s,

Jacob Worthington
