It's an awesome rig, and getting very cheap lately.

But it has a few bugs: the internal speaker needs to be replaced with a
Motorola HT speaker found at hamfests. And there is a problem reported where
the squelch fails to open on 450 occasionally. The fix is to select a
different step size believe it or not. The actual reason should be discussed
on the FT90 Yahoo!group in my opinion.

Thanks
