FT817 - Peters comments-
On the 817 side; this has been my main station RX this week and with the YXM
preamp up front on the big aerial its performed very well. Stability has
been excellent - no intermod/xmod or sproggies. Without the preamp its deaf!
As you can see this is a flying visit
Cheers Laurence KL1X
