[Yaesu] FT-620B Information.

[Ray, W2EC]

Hello John,

I have an FT-620B purchased new by me. I've had excellent luck with it.
It is analog, not digital and doesn't include FM but does a super job on
SSB, AM and CW. I also have the extra crystals installed for the 52-54mc
range (they were optional, the rig came with only frequencies 50 thru
52mc active). I use it with a Mirage A1015 (10 watts in, 150 watts out)
and the amp also has a built-in switchable (on/off) preamp. 

Both units are in excellent condition, the Mirage looks like new, the
FT-620B has one tiny scratch at the bottom edge of the front panel just
under and to the right of the OFF under the CLARIFIER control. You can
just see it as a line of silver in the attached picture. Both are
in perfect operating condition. Here are two pictures of the equipment:

I just purchased a new HF transceiver that includes 100 watts of 6
meters so I no longer have a need for the FT-620B/A1015 combination,
although I hadn't planned on selling them. However if you are
interested, I really don't NEED them anymore and will consider selling.

I'd sell the FT-620B for $280 (plus shipping from NY zip 13732), which
is the average price I've been seeing them listed for. It has the
original manual and I believe I also still have the original box
somewhere.

I'd sell the Mirage A1015 amp for $280 plus shipping as well and would
sell both as a package deal for $540 plus shipping. I will not sell the
amp seperate until after the FT-620B has been sold if the purchaser
doesn't want the amp. 

Let me know if there is any interest.
