The FT-857 has all the fancy stuff - CAT, digital modes, memories, etc. - which I like for digital contacts but for actual voice QSOs I much prefer the venerable TS-520.

@fbz I was wondering what the hashtag was for vintage radio gear. Clearly is the answer. Would love it if you could provide some pics of your HW101.

in case my nerd friends are interested, i have quite a few radio rebuild/repair projects languishing. i have a full HW101 HF tube based transceiver + power supply waiting to be cleaned/recapped/resoldered. and i have an 80s solid state HF rig that i stupidly dropped and need to debug and repair. it's my HF rig to lend out as a loaner for friends getting into HF. it was loaned to me from someone who is sadly now silent key and his family didn't want the rig back. (don't fret for me though because i have a working Yaesu FT-991 HF rig as well)

who else is with me in the club?

One of the locals in the new 6 meter AM net decided to buy an old Clegg and clean it up. Sounded great last night!
