Hi Gang,
Up for sale is a FT 747  GX.
This rig covers 160-10 meters, + WARC bands.
Also has General coverage  bands
The radio a few years back had the front face plate, the board behind  it, 
and the long vertical board that runs from front to back replaced.
A new  cover has also been installed.
The rig has the SSB,CW & AM filters  installed.
All this work was done by Yeasu.
I do not have the optional FM  unit.
This radio has one small bug ?? Maybe?
When sending CW with the CW  filter OUT, I get a loud pop in the speaker 
between dots & dashes as if the  AGC was super fast.
With the CW filter activated it's very tight and no  popping sound.
Yesterday I fired it up for the first time in about 4  years.
I had good audio and was right on frequency
The small silver  looking letters on the front are not worn off.
I just can't seem to get a  good picture of the radio.
As stated above the front is brand new.
Good  audio.
No chirps,buzzing,hums.
All buttons work.
No mods ever made on  the rig.
Price via Postal, MO only is $275.00 Shipped.
Please keep in mind  some of that price goes for boxes,tape,packing material.
Shows some dust in  the front speaker grill but other then that it's a neat 7 
pound solid state nice  back up rig and can be turned down to work QRP.
*E* mail me direct for  additional pictures if needed.
Thank  you
BOB
