Yaesu FT-991 compared with the FT-817ND – HF SSB and CW

Posted date: September 22, 2015in: ReviewNo Comments

FT-817ND vs FT-991 using the same Antenna – HyEndFed 5 Band. To give the FT-817ND a fighting chance, I have added the CW filter and I have connected it to the MLS-200 external speaker. I do adjust the RF gain on both radios during the video to reduce the band noise.
