Hi,

I recently sold my Yaesu FT-897 because my K2 replace it for sure... :-)

I was using this rig for outdoor activity. I only sold the rig and the 
tuner, but kept the brand new batteries and charger.... for another 
good usage...

I now use my "old" new FT-897 batteries that give 13.2V and 4500 mAh 
with universal Anderson Power Product connectors, so this way I can 
switch easy between them. Also, I can use batterie to power up my MFJ 
259B antenna analyzer with my Buddipole antenna for tuning.

See more at my website:

It will do the job for now until I build the "real" batterie kit for 
the K2, that is for sure, more convenient to use.
