Greetings all..

I’m in process of shifting from Yaesu to Icom digital ecosystem.

This move is driven by my most recent acquisition of an IC-9700 and an ensuing need for uniform hardware/software interfaces.

Accordingly, I’ll soon have available three Yaesu HF/VHF/UHF transceivers for sale or trade:

1. FT-897D (+60m)
2. FT-897
3. FT-818ND

All are fully functional and in perfect condition with exception of the FT-897D which is exhibiting 1-2 of those vertical lines in the display (no way interferes with operation and a common defect that’s easily repaired).

These units do have a bit of history; the 897D has 10 DXCC awards on it and the 897 has done well in contests and brought me within a hair’s breadth of 6m WAS/WAC. The 818 was purchased to be used as a transverter IF, but higher priorities intervened, and I never got around to that. Basically, it’s unused and I have extras.

All units are digital-ready - I’ll include digital interfaces as value-added items.

I’d accept cash for these units but am mainly interested in trades for microwave test equipment.

If interested, ping me via email. Make me an offer.
