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
