 From Tony N2MFT:

*Welcome-* Thank you for visiting the Yaesu FT-101 Repair and Alignment 
website. This is your one-stop shopping for all of your FT-101 repair 
and alignment needs. I have been operating, repairing, and restoring 
FT-101s for 30+ years. It was my first HF radio and my entire FT-101 
station (above) is fully operational- even today! I am here to help. 
Let's get started-

*Introduction-* My name is Al Rabassa. I am an Extra Class amateur radio 
operator with the FCC call sign NW2M. You may already know me or have 
visited my FT-101 website that I started 20 years ago. My electronic and 
computer backgrounds span 48 years with the past 33 years a "ham" and an 
avid FT-101 collector. I have been blessed with advanced academic 
degrees from: MIT, Johns Hopkins University, and Monmouth University. 
Diagnostics and logical thinking are my specialty.

*Purpose-* The purpose of this website is to bring you up to speed on my 
FT-101 service shop and to see if I can assist you with the services 
that your radio may need. I own a complete FT-101 station with every 
station accessory offered- so I know what you have and how it's supposed 
to operate. I have all of the original Yaesu factory extender cards, 
calibrated test equipment*, service manuals, and parts rigs to test and 
tune _all_ of the original FT-101s. If you are not familiar with the 
FT-101 series radios, please visit my FT-101 website 
<http://www.qsl.net/nw2m/ft101.html> to learn all about it. There is so 
much to learn and to understand as you finalize your decision.

*Why-* Each radio was built by hand. There is craftsmanship. There is 
workmanship. There is pride. Someone actually built my radio. Nothing 
like this existed before, and nothing like it since. It was a very 
special time for FT-101 owners worldwide. It was my first connection to 
ham radio and with my Elmer. While he is no long here <sk>, those 
memories are still vivid. My first CW contact, first SSB, WAC, early 
DXCC, and even my early satellite contacts were all done with my FT-101.

So, I am not just restoring radios- I am restoring memories.
