[2m] FT897 comments

[John Geiger]

Wonder how people have found the FT897 performance so
far.  I have heard some ask if it is the FT817
receiver (which means its pretty crappy), or is the
receiver more like the FT100D.  When I talked to the
Yaesu rep at Hamcomm in June he thought that the
receiver was on par with the FT920?  Is that true? So,
how good is the receiver in the FT897?  What other
radio does its receiver most compare to?  Any other
likes or dislikes about the radio?
