Re: [Elecraft] K4 - VHF/UHF

2019-05-13 Thread Charlie T
Actually, I need to correct myself.  The FT-726 DID have space for two
optional modules because it only came with the 2M  band.
Curiously, you needed TWO modules to cover the whole ¾M band.
One covered from 430 to 440 MHz and a different one covered from 440 to 450
MHz.

No, it only had space for ONE extra module.
You're thinking of the FT-736R

It also had a 435 MHz module, with space for two more.  It was ready for
satellite use from the factory.

That's a Yaesu FT-726r

It came with a 2m module, and had space for two more.

Haven't seen anything like it since.

I would like to see a matching box that had Transvertermodules that you
