This would be a good choice for the Crested Butte DX-pedition in August. (It has the typical Yeasu 6 pin mini Din data port on the back). At my shack it has been connected to a TNC and my APRS Radio on 2m. I used it at Winter Field Day on JS8Call and made 4-5 contacts with just 5 watts and an inverted V Dipole on 40m. I am selling to buy a different QRP radio. It has been a good radio and I have been pleased with its performance as a QRP radio. SO-239 Antenna connector on the back and a BNC antenna connector on the front. It also operates on 13.8V DC power with DC Power cord Has an ACC port on the back for Cat control/Programing with RT Systems software/antenna tuner interface. Comes with an internal battery (9.6V 1700mAh) that does not last for very long, but will operate the radio. Cosmetically it has a couple of scratches on the body and the grey power button as some gouging, however it functions normally and is just an appearance problem. ![]() The radio is in excellent working order and puts out the full 5 watts on TX according to my MFJ Power Meter. This is an older Yeasu FT-817 (Not an 817D) with several accessories. ![]() Only offered here through Memorial Day Weekend, if no one takes it I will put it up for sale on those other sites.
