[Yaesu] Re: AM mode FT-920 (Don Putnick)

[John A. Pawlicki]

Don,

You do not necessarily need to have the filter to both receive and 
transmit AM with the 920.  It all depends on whether you have the filter 
substitute board that Yaesu began to provide with the later 920s.  I 
don't have the AM module yet I can both transmit and receive (albeit 
widely) with mine.  If you decide to buy the filter later, you can just 
swap out the substitute board with the filter.

Yes this is a really great rig at a really great price.  Don't be afraid 
to turn off the pre-amp (IPO on) and use some attenuation when 
conditions are noisey (i.e. 40 meter band and lomger).
