Hi all,
I have purchased a Yaesu FTdx-570, a thirty-year old, twenty-tube rig that
I wanted very badly when I was studying for my license. Now I can afford
it (for $200!)

I know it is not in the category of Hallicrafters-National-Hammarlund
(got, and had, some of those, too), but I guess it qualifies as a
boatanchor.

It won't be here for about a week, but I was just wondering if anyone has
had any experience with the 560-570 series, or has any comments they could
make about them. I asked on the Fox-Tango reflector, but they seem to all
have FT-101s. Any comments appreciated!

73,
Paul K4PDM
