For $1599 it will be a great radio for portable operators

Off to watch YouTube reviews off a brochure

The haters will trash it as they can't afford it so the toxicity will come out like the haters did on the 705

I can't afford to be a ham as it is, much less go off buying a new radio!? Maybe someone will give me one to try.

Hard to know without a price. Right now it’s a brochure photo with a $35 reservation fee. I suspect it’ll be in the vicinity of the competing ICOM and Elecraft, so probably $2,000+ with all the options.?

Good afternoon,

One question, has the FTX-1F fullduplex capability?

I have been playing with a Xiego 90, it has a lot of features? for a $400 radio.? I used it on a number of Pota activations. See Nov issue of QST for an article I wrote about this.?

Really too many unknowns (like price) to make a decision now.

I will say that Yaesu is *obviously* 'gunning' for the IC-705, and they've got their work cut out for them.

I believe ultimately it will be a winner, maybe even initially, but for me, I'll wait and see...

Re: Will you upgrade to the FTX-1F? #poll-notice

 

Good question but hard to answer until an FTX-1F exists, we still don't even know if it will meet the specs they have claimed.? When there is one (and I may buy one just to see!), I can then compare and contrast.?

Go to this link:


Scroll to the bottom of the message, and click the last line of the message that reads:

Click Here to View Donation Request


That last line is a clickable link on the page, it takes you to a page that tells of the request, reports how much has been raised so far, and allows you to provide your CC info on that page. The requester says you can contact him directly for alternative methods to donate.


Hope that helps

Re: Keeping this group on the web

 

There is a Paypal link.

But perhaps the OP should make clear the "Donation" link says "Sponsor".? I looked for several minutes trying to find something that says donate...
