[Yaesu] FT-847 Info

[Ray Dabkowski]

Anyone else like me? -- drooling over the new FT-847 and scrounging for info?

Great news!  According to the Anaheim HRO Web site, the FT-847 has been
type-accepted by the FCC.  Availability is now set for "early March".  One
other piece of information has become public: the wide-receive range for
this rig.  A feature list posted at the Web site provides the following...

	100 kHz - 30 MHz
	36 MHz - 76 MHz
	110 MHz - 174 MHz
	420 MHz - 512 MHz

See for yourself at http://www.dxer.com/hamstore/product.html

BTW, thanks to all those friendly individuals on this list who came to my
aid when attempting to interface an old SB-220 to my FT-890.  It's working
great!
The FT-890/AT will be for sale soon -- when the FT-847 is on the market.
Make me an offer... I'll be selling low to move it fast.  :)  73 to all.
