U20523 Used Yaesu FT-817 HF/6M/VHF/UHF All-Mode 5W QRP Ultra-Compact Transceiver 

This pre-owned Yaesu FT-817 is in good overall condition, showing surface scuffs, small scratches, and finish wear along the top, bottom, and side casing. The front LCD display illuminates clearly with sharp segment contrast, and all dials, rotary switches, and rubberized push buttons function smoothly. The fold-out wire bail stand underneath is intact and supports the radio properly. Please note that internal batteries are not included. It comes complete with a Yaesu MH-31 hand microphone,short DC power cable with Powerpole connectors, the original printed operating manual, and a spiral-bound laminated Nifty Mini-Manual.

The Yaesu FT-817 is the classic, world-renowned ultra-compact multi-band backpack transceiver engineered for QRP enthusiasts, portable summit activations (SOTA), and emergency field operations. Providing all-mode coverage (SSB, CW, AM, FM, and digital packet) across 160 meters through 70 centimeters (including the 6-meter and 2-meter bands), it delivers up to 5 Watts of clean RF output power on an external 13.8V DC power supply. Built with dual antenna ports (a front-panel BNC and a rear-panel SO-239), 200 regular memory channels, dual VFOs, split-frequency capability, IF shift, and built-in CTCSS/DCS, the FT-817 packs full-featured HF/VHF/UHF multi-mode performance into an ultra-portable, grab-and-go form factor.
