[50mhz] Re: [VHF] Yaesu FT450 performance

[John Geiger]

Thanks for the info Paul.  Little out of my price range, but Yaesu does
appear to be coming out with some neat new rigs as they completely redo
their product line.

Shelby Hamfest last weekend. It's HF+6 similar in size to the 756 series.
The rep said it had the FT-2000 receiver (only one) and no internal power
supply. I understood it was to be about $1500. I don't think it's available
yet but there are photos and a manual on the web?if you search.
