With the radio’s built in power supply and automatic antenna tuner, this radio is a fully self contained rig with many advanced features like IF shift, notch filter, and digital memories. Plenty of power and easy to use once you are aquatinted with the controls.
OLD.....Money better spent on newer technology, not on a 20+ year old radio....Can you say, "recap?" If radio works well, it's fun to play with and listen, but you never know if the next time you turn it on that it won't blow a capacitor or such....
Pony Boy... Doesn't have a clue when it comes to nostalgic and quality built radio equipment.
The IF stage and receiver in that radio is twice of any thing you can buy today...So what if Blows a component. That's what Ham radio all about.... It's amazing how unknowledgeable the new hams are.
the yaesu 767gx will do just about everything that you could ask of a ham radio,but it is a very complex rig(not for the inexperienced operator). all said, great radio very durable.
