While we wait for the first deliveries, I'm wondering whether there are any SGC 2020 users on this list, and what they find more (or less) attractive about the FT-817 compared to the 2020? 73 John

Hi, Couldn't help but jump into this. I've had amps that use a 4CX250 and they would be perfect candidates to run high power. The tube will cover HF/VHF/UHF no problem. Since the tube is a

Actually, 100 watts is only slightly over 2 S-units stronger than 5 watts. Paul, 5 watts should be fine unless you wish to talk to the lids on 75M, who won't pay any attention to you if you're not 40

I do all my operating at <5 watts and have over 230 DXCC contacts on SSB. The problem on the road is having a good antenna. I also think higher bands will be much more productive on QRP

But... he said he wants 5 watts on the road, and 100 watts at home. An amplifier is a good solution Pres Waterman W2PW c/o Patchogue Motors, Inc. Long Island Ford and Kia dealer GO BILLS!

If you think of the FT-817 as a portable, battery operated rig, and are satisfied with the 5 watt power limit (actually, 2 watts under battery power) then you don't need or want an amplifier. After

Hi, Here's a question from a relatively new ham who travels a lot in and out of the US. Could I use some type of amplifier when using the 817 at home to get more than 5 watts out? Any way to get

It is, Pres. Everything I own that is battery operated runs off those MaHa 1600ma NiMH batteries. HTs, Digital Camera, GPS, FRS radio, Remote Controls... I even replaced the 700maH nicads in my

I have been looking at the 817 for a few weeks now, and really want to get one. The are so many pluses to this radio-dynamo that are appealing to my needs/wants. Besides being a good looking rig. I

Is there any reason why we would not want to buy 1600 mAH NiMh AA batteries instead? Sounds like more capacity Pres Waterman W2PW c/o Patchogue Motors, Inc. Long Island Ford and Kia dealer GO

There are optional 2.3kHz and 500Hz filters available, as well as a temperature controlled oscillator. The battery is a 9.6V/1000 mAh pack. I'm not aware of a DSP option. 73, Jim 7J1AJH

I asked this question earlier but never heard a peep back. Anyone aware of what options will be offered in connection with the 817? Battery, DSP, filters? Anyone looked into this? I saw the 817 at

Just got on this list a few days ago, AFTER I ordered the radio. Now we should be getting our radios soon (not soon enought), why don't we agree on an evening to get together and exchange radio

Hi Paul, I have the tentec 6m transverter; will send a note of interest concerning 220. I enjoy all band operations - 160 - 1200 and above, and have a pair of FT-736's which i use for most of my VHF

If you are a fan of 220, or ever thought of getting on 220, please consider sending an email to: sales@... and let them know you are interested in purchasing a 10M to 220MHz

I was quite excited about the TS-2000 until I visited the Kenwood booth while at Dayton this past March. My biggest issue with the TS-2000 is that, although they call it "all-band, all mode," it is

since the 817 draws approximately 300ma on receive and the battery charges at 250 ma and taking into consideration that most of my operation (more than 8:1 ) is in the receive mode I use only a 12

Thanks! 73, Kent, K6FQ

but the go to Goto another brochure at http://216.133.235.165/Amateur/Current_Brochures/TS-2000.pdf It shows the specs for the new TS-2000. One interesting note (see specs and overview sections) is
