Yeasu FT-817ND as IF transceiver

FT-817NDTo work more portable on UHF+ and SHF (and to have a nice transceiver to feed the LZ5HP 13cm transverter) I’ve bought an Yeasu FT-817nd at the Hamshop. Within two days, the 0.5PPM TXCO arrived from England via Ebay.

I bought tis unit because the IC-9100 isn’t a great transceiver to use with HF. As well as others, the IC-9100 had problems with RF spikes just miliseconds after pushing PTT. This can damage your transverter.
