Well! In 15 hours we have over 20 people on the list... including some "dignitaries" who can introduce themselves if they wish.

Speaking of introductions, to get the ball rolling why don't you all say hello and give a few proposed applications you plan to put this little rig to.

Camping might be a very popular option. Boating... BICYCLE!!! Hmmm.

Myself, I am a car dealer, and am in and out of vehicles often. It's a drag to install, even temporarily, regular radios. Although I own 2 FT-100's ( the newest not even out of the box ) I may consider selling one and making the 817 the travel/temporary rig and the FT-100 for base use.

I was lucky enough to attend the Tokyo Ham-fair last year. Of course I would have liked to return last week, and there was even an airfare sale! But alas, the schedule did not permit. But luckily the fellow from Mexico took pictures. I hope we all have the URL from his page but if not I can probably repost it.

Well, over to you all! And welcome...
