Hi, everyone,

I made my first 6m SSB contact with my newly arrived Yaesu FT-650 last
night.  I also played around with it a bit on 12m, with one QSO into
South America.  What a wonderful little rig!  It's well thought out,
intuitive to operate, and the narrow SSB filter/shift combo is very
effective.  I can't wait for E-skip season this spring.

I bought the rig that Ron, KL7XL, advertised here on the reflector. 
This is the second time I've dealt with Ron, and he seems like a great
guy.  He's 100% honest and he keeps his rigs in beautiful condition. 
With all the "bad ham" postings around the net I feel he deserves a
public thank you for offering the rig here on the reflector at a very
nice price.

I'm happy :)

73,
Caity
