1) Hugh McCully book on the FT-817
2) ZM-2 ATU
3) Power source considerations be it Nickel-Metal Hydride batteries, 7.5 amp
gel-cel, or a large 115vac wall-wart. I preferr the 7.5 amp gel-cel, but
your choice

adds?
#1 - a cw filter. I have the 300 and am really impressed with it.
#2 - the W4RT battery accessory (www.w4rt.com). DOn't have one yet, but
it's
on the list.
#3 - the Hugh McCully book on the FT-817. Concise and much better than the
factory manual.

Thanks to the crowd, I've been lurking for a while and decided to
jump in. 1 FT-817 is shipping Monday from Gigaparts!
(Aside - ordered with 3 day shipping, George check the time to
travel, found that ground was 2 days, and since ground was free -
shipped it GROUND!! Now that's service!)
Well, now for the fun part. I've followed the discussions (or is
that cuss'ins) on the various add-ons. What do you consider your 3
most important adds to the rig?
I know this can be dependent on planned usage so here her goes.
Planning on using it as 1) portable to my folks mountain "retirement"
home, ditto the in-laws. Great trees to string a temp long wire
(thinking z-11 and some random length wire?)
Batteries?
Other antenna for walking around the country side? (my folks are in
the middle of nowhere!)
ETC?
Thanks for any advice - Have a great weekend!
