Hello,
I see one modif for FT847 for better stability, it is simply to put isolation of foam or plastic on quartz. I never have the stability?problem with my 847, who I use for monitoring some sats. With programm Sat32 ant connecting CAT to Com1 (rs232), who is very good combination for following satellites.
