[Elecraft] FT-950 Elite-Class 100 W HF/50 MHz Transceiver announcement
I thought folks might be interested to read about this. No price noted... It's one of the raffle prizes at SEDCO this year. Looks like some standard K3 items are options on this one! http://www.k4ro.net/tcg/misc/FT-950pressNA.doc http://www.sedco.homestead.com/ 73, Julius n2wn ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

Alot of this text comes from the FT 2000 brochure. Maybe it is a FT 2000 with Version 2.0 software. I personally do not understand why Yaesu is doing this prior the FT 2000 being stable unless it is replacing the FT 2000.. The features of the K3 and the approach that Elecraft is using to bring this to market (input from dxers, contestors, field testers, pre-built rig, etc..) will make this the rig of choice for many in the ham community. I expect the K3 will be one of the most popular and highly regarded rigs of all time. Jay - KT5E K2 - 5037 K3 - ? J F wrote: I thought folks might be interested to read about this. No price noted...

The FT-950 is kind of a FT-2000 Lite. It has some of the 2000's features, but the 950 lacks a sub-receiver and internal AC supply. I'm curious about the price class of the 950- I'd guess something like $1600. 73, Scott, N9AA Jay Schwisow wrote: Alot of this text comes from the FT 2000 brochure.

I concur Jay, and I suspect the price will be brutal, not to mention the options. The option that sounded interesting was the DMU, due to the O'scope feature. I found the timing of the announcement interesting. If I win it at SECDCO, I might even give it a try... Na ;o) The K3 is it fer me! 73, Julius n2wn --- Jay Schwisow [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Alot of this text comes from the FT 2000 brochure. Maybe it is a FT 2000 with Version 2.0 software.
