Well I got my new FT-897D for the MH. I am working on it now and might have it on the air today or Sunday. That's assuming my ICOM to Yaesu interface is in the mail today and it should be.
I am using a little dual band VHF/UHF antenna and a 102" whip that is being fed by and ICOM AH-4 tuner. With this HF antenna I can add wire to the antenna and toss it in a tree should I find one for more band access and a better antenna.
I hope this pix post works~~

Now about that!
