Great Radio Time Owned: more than 12 months.
I had this radio back in the early 1980's for about 6 years and it replaced a Yaesu 227R. This was a great radio and was the only radio at the time that would fit in my 1977 chevy monza with the control head under the dash and the transceiver in the trunk. The high 10W output at the time was all that was needed if you had a good antenna installed and the antenna installation was done correctly. I did all my own work and never had anyone do it for me and back in those days it was a good learning experience. Its only flaw was a small amount of memories(3 or 4) but it was sufficient for my needs back then......DE Dan n2AYM
