Yaesu FT 840 Radio Transceiver

Great value - easy to use

The Yaesu FT840 is a great rig especially when equipped with optional filters.
It's good choice for as a first time rig, for rag chewing, general operation. Clean CW & exceptional phone operation.<br>The receive audio is fantastic even on the built in speaker it provides easy listening arm charm sound.
Only thing missing is RF Gain... at times it's good to be able to cut the gain when adjacent frequency signals are extra strong.
Otherwise this is an exceptional rigRead full review

TX without problems

This TX, yes a bit an older one, but meets all the requirements if you on the air in HF Bands.
Selectivity is very good. I find the sound is much better than in newer ones.
I work mostly in CW.<br>The filters (standard) is ok for me - no needet more narrow..

Well built and easy to use.

It is compact, not too heavy, nice and clear display. Power output is very close to what was advertised. It would have been good if it also had 6M!. Receiving it just 2 week ago, don't know if I can program it for 60M on it's memory but can surely do it manually. It is a very nice unit for me.

OUTSTANDING TRANSCEIVER

THIS 100 WATT TRANSCEIVER WILL COMMUNICATE WORLDWIDE--ESPECIALLY GREAT
WITH AUDIO COMPRESSION AND SINGLE SIDEBAND. MOST OF THE CLEVER CHOICES
FOR BOTH TRANSMITTING AND RECEIVING ARE INCORPORATED IN THE YAESU FT-840.
THE CONSTRUCTION USES TOP OF THE LINE COMPONENTS WITH DESIGN AND QUALITY CONTROL TO MATCH.

Great little xcvr

I do a lot of CW and RTTY. FT-840 is not rated for 100% duty clcle, but with a bit of aux cooling air, it will carry a contesting load.
