Ad Number:	1763543
Date Placed:	03/29/26
Name:	John Geiger
Phone Number:	580-591-6885
Callsign:	AF5CC
Category:	RADIOHF
Heading:	FS: Yaesu FT890 with autotuner
Ad Message:	From a local SK estate I have for sale a Yaesu FT890 HF transceiver with the built in autotuner. Rig has great receive, tuner works great and fast, and will load up about anything. All controls seem to work fine, and this radio is in close to mint condition. Looks new except for one small scratch on one side. This radio does 160-10 watts, SSB/CW/AM/FM with a great sounding receiver. Now the bad, it is only putting out 10 watts. The 100/50 switch is in the 100 watt position. I adjusted a couple of internal controls with the same result-it still only puts out 10 watts. No optional filters are installed, it comes with the hand mic and manual but no power cord. I am asking $300 plus shipping. This is sold as-is due to the low power output but everything seems to work fine in it other than the power output. Really nice looking radio and easy to operate. 73 John AF5CC

Your Response to this Ad:

Due to the amount of non-ham scammers trying to respond to the ads, I am now asking a simple question that ham operators should easily be able to answer, but scammers may not know the answer: What is the number that hams use to represent the phrase "Best Regards"? This number is typically transmitted by hams at the end of a QSO.
Best Regards:
