Greetings from a new lurker. I have been watching here before posting, but haven't seen anything about the 857's bloated brother, the 897. I recently bought an 897d and looked on Gio for a groups specific to that radio but found none. Since
the two radios run from the same motherboard, it would seem that this would be a good place for questions or discussion. If not, I will gladly move on if you can point me to the right group. Thanks, everyone!
