[NLRS] Yaesu FT-817 Question

[Scott]

Quick question about the Yaesu QRP rig, the FT-817...Does anybody know 
if it has the same neat feature as the FT-857 where you can set the VFO 
to some frequency and then set a display offset (XVTR function) so that 
the display actually shows the transmit frequency of an attached 
transverter?  For example, I set my FT-857's VFO to 22.100, set the 
offset, enable the XVTR function and the display shows 222.100 or 
902.100 or 10368.100, etc.

I oopsied my 222 transverter and I think the low power 817 would be a 
good way to dedicate a rig to use as an IF rig and not have so much 
power available to blow sensitive MMICs...
