I want one!

I got mine this week to have on hand in case I end up with a failure or rather, WHEN I get a failure.? They are the control board, LCD, buttons, uController, encoder knob.? There is no frame, volume/sq knob, or VFO optical encoder.? It is certainly the meat of the control head.

Are those FT-857 control panels the whole head?

As I thought, I have 2 FT-897 control panels with LCD's surplus to requirements, and also a few control panels for the 857 in addition to various other spares like encoders, heads, etc'.

These were all accumulated while I owned the 857/897, but these are now long gone & replaced with more current rigs.

Unfortunately radioworld.uk is out of stock. Thank you all for the replies.

I don't have just the LCD, however, I have 2 (I think) brand new control panels with LCD's that I bought a few months ago that are no longer of any use.

I sold my 897 nearly 2 weeks ago.

It doesn't appear you're anywhere near me, though, so unless you know somebody here in the UK purchasing it won't be cost effective.

I purchased the last ones from Radioworld back then.

A few months ago, I got one from Radioworld in UK. They told me then there were only 7 left.
That was the ONLY place I could find them. I have a second 897 that is starting to do the same thing, but still very readable. I hope they have some left....
Many hams are now using the CAT displays. They work well but do not show menu screens.

As all of you know the "white" lines some time they do appear and there is nothing to do, except the replacement. As far as my 857, I already have purchased the replacement panel. BUT just last week the same issue appeared on my 897. I am searching the web for a replacement display only,?even the after market types, seem to have vanished from the shops.?

So, I am asking you guys for your help. If anyone knows a shop, or an individual to purchase the screen only, even the aftermarket type,?for the 897, please give a link. I do not want to throw away this radio just because I can't find a screen to replace.

Thank you for your time,
