Ad Number:	1768935

Phone Number:	8043877392
Callsign:	KC4AUF
Category:	RADIOHF
Heading:	Yaesu FT-897D & FC-30 $750.00 Free Ship
Ad Message:	I’m 80 years old living in a retirement community apartment with my wife. I no longer have a need for this Yaesu FT-897D. It is a Japanese radio with the Japanese band plan specs, expect it must have been modified somewhat as it does all the ARRL band plan frequencies just fine. The only exceptions I could find was with 2meter where it transmits on 144-146 and 70cm from 430-440. That actually didn’t effect me much as I used a 2meter 440 mobile rig for that. The FC-30 automatic antenna tuner works perfect except it doesn’t have the hardware to attach it to the side of the radio which didn’t matter as I sat it behind my monitor out of sight. This also includes the RT Systems programming software CD and programming cable (a $54.00 value on eBay) and the FC-30 connection cable. As I checked on eBay for prices on these two items I found it to be an average low price of $908.00 and a high average of $1,020.00 so for $750.00 with free shipping this is a very good deal. PayPal only.

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:
