Yaesu FT-857 - Multiband Transceiver
7 day special, low price just 435.00
Measuring just 6.1 "x 2" x 9.2" (155 x 52 x 233 mm), the FT-857 is the
world's smallest full-power HF/VHF/UHF multimode transceiver!
Its rugged case design is a masterpiece of ergonomic design, with often- used
switches and knobs conveniently positioned for easy access.
Borrowing extensively from the FT-897 transmitter design, the FT-857's rugged
power amplifier section utilizes Bipolar Transistor devices, providing low
noise, low distortion, and high reliability. On HF and 6 meters, you get 100
Watts of clean power output, while on 2 meters you get 50 Watts out, and 20
Watts on 70 cm. Reliability is assured thanks to the extensive cooling system,
featuring a thermostatically-controlled fan and aluminum diecast chassis.
