YAESU FT-818 HF/VHF/UHF Multiband Handheld Transceiver

YAESU FT-818ND

The new FT-818 incorporates all the basic and attractive features of the popular FT-817ND while providing the desired updates for radio amateurs. Also now includes as standard: Battery and charger. The supplied Ni-MH batteries (SBR-32MH) has been upgraded to now provide a higher battery capacity: 9.6v / 1900mAh.
For more than forty years, Yaesu has been a world class brand, in the design and manufacture of high performance multimode HF transmitters for use in base stations, FM mobile phones and portable transmitters.
Frequencies:
TX: 1.8 - 29.7 mHz 50-54 mHz, 144-146-430-440 mHz

Differences with FT-817
FT-818ND:
The power 6 watts.
High stability oscillator TCXO-9 incorporated.
SBR-32MH 9.6 Volts 1900 mAh High capacity NiMH battery.

The FT-818 ND is waiting for you, ready for your next excursion, camping or search in rescue operations. Compact design, great final step performance, 6 real watts of antenna output.
Despite its incredible small size (5.3 "x 1.5" x 6.5 "WHD) and light weight (approximately 900 grams), the FT-818 develops a great performance! This is the next generation with greater power amplification in all bands using the transient 2SK2975 MOS FETs to provide 6 Watts of power (AM: carries 1.5W) in the bands 160-2 meters, plus 70 cm (13.8V DC input). You can choose between four power levels. /2.2/1/0.5 W. Prepared to operate on 8 "AA" alkaline batteries, the FT-817 can also be operated from an external 13.8 Volt DC source, or from the battery pack.
