  • Enjoyed the video Elaine Jan or Dec :-) i use a twin paddle iambic keyer when on cw how do you find the FT897 undecided between that and the FT857D not made up my mind yet ?

  • I preferred the FT-897D, only because it has the appearance of a more conventional desk-top or table-top radio.. The 857D would probably be a nicer rig for back-pack or HFPack operations for pedestrian mobile operations..
