Here's my little spiel offered whenever someone asks, "Whats's the best?
FM 2m/44 HT out there?" ---
The Yaesu FT-60R is a GREAT value for anyone looking for a solid
2M/440 handheld. The FT-60R debuted at Dayton in 2004. It was
a great bargain then - and remains so today. Among its features ...
-1,000 memories
-receives (essentially) 108mHz to a gig (even AM air)
-large, legible display
-easy to manually program (one-page cheat sheet at k6lcs dot com)
-bulletproof case design*
-strongest belt clip of any ham HT chassis on the market
-great receive audio... as well as a unique battery setup: You can use the optional
FBA-25 AA case with either NiMH cells or alkalines, and have
full TX power available! NOTHING else has this quality, durability,?
and feature set.?

*- OK, the FT-60R isn’t truly “bulletproof.” But several of my
audiences have seen me toss one across the stage - literally - during
my presentations to show that they stand up to a little abuse ... Do not
try that at home, though. Send email or call (909) 999-SATS with any
questions!
