[CW] Yaesu FT-991 | QRZ Now – Ham Radio News!

[D.J.J. Ring, Jr. via CW]

I'd like to see the TS-2000 with USB connection for firmware upgrades.
 TS-2000 is just like a base station verson of the FT-897D - more knobs you
can adjust without going into menus.  An amazing radio, both of them.

I want to see the current consumption of  Yaesu FT-991- maybe the
improvements are at current consumption expense.  I don't know yet.
