I would like to see an option of a removable front fascia to mount it
like I have done with my 706 .Used in a leather case qrp only.
Also to the guy who was wondering if he needs a car battery to lug class
it as using the same power consumption as the VX5 I know this uses Li-on
but the 9.6v on 817 will have a slot for their ni-mh 9.6v pack which
will be removeable to place 8 AA batteries in it probably double the
capacity than most handy batt packs thats my thought....... watch this
space and quote me on it I,m confident de John.
