Default Great little review on Yaesu's FT-817

Qualsh has posted a nice little review on the Yaesu FT-817.

Excerpt:
Great for beginning ham operators as well as those looking to get more
advanced. The things I am most satisfied with about this radio, are
quality of the engineering, the power abilities, versatility, and just
overall a great radio. The drawbacks are the interface, pretty lousy
stock antenna and the limited size of the controls...

You need to add this. It compliments the 817.

Then follow that with this,

to get it up to the drive level of a serious amp.


That's a bit extreme. Are you trying to talk to Martians?
