[Yaesu] TS830S vs FT901/902

[John Geiger]

I am thinking of getting a competition grade ham band
only radio, and am looking between the Kenwood TS830S
and the Yaesu FT901 or 902.  Has anyone had the
experience of directly comparing the 2?  The Yaesu
looks like it has some nice features that the TS830
doesn't, like FM, built in keyer, and the ability to
run split with the 1 memory channel.  I also know that
the 901 (which is easier to find than the 902) doesnt
do WARC bands, although there is a kit to add those
bands.  I am also interested in how the NB works on
each as I am in what is getting to be a pretty noisy
location.

So, from those of you who have used these radios,
which is the better one to pick up-830 or 901?
