[Yaesu] Any vintage Yaesu owner/operators?

[R_Davis]

I currently use my first rig, bought in about 1975 or 76,  -- an FT-101EX,
which I have upgraded to an "E" configuration by adding the DC-DC converter
and RF Speech Processor.  I have also installed the WARC bands.  It is still
(knock on wood) running on its 1977 tubes.  I also use an FR-101D receiver
and FL-2100B linear, both speakers one with, the other without the phone
patch.  Although I have never used the patch. I also have the original desk
mike, but I use a D104, or sometimes a Turner +3 for a little more audio (at
least that is what I believe).  I picked up an FT-620B at dayton, but
haven't had time to fool with it other than make sure it comes on and
transmits a little..
