[Yaesu] Need info on FTS-7

[Jim Dicso]

David,

The FT736R uses the FTS-8 Tone Squelch.  I have the Operating Manual which
provides programming info but no component detail on the Tone unit
(reference in my manual to FT736R technical supplement which
provides info on setting level using trimmer pot on the FTS-8).  Do you want
a copy of any of this?

Thanks, Jim K2SZ
