even have date for the Z-11. I have had the FT-817 for almost a month
and have yet to get on the air since I do not trust it's internal
SWR guestimeter with any homebrew. I have too many flashbacks of
smoking 6146's in my youth to take any chance on transmitting with
something less than optimal. :)
Oh no, don't worry. The FT-817 has finals rated about 5 times what it will
put out. Also there is a "HI-SWR" shutdown. Go play.
