What needs to be brought that has not been brought up? It looks like meat has been covered fairly well and vegetables are being scoffed at...deserts look like they are filled in well as well....happy to bring something(s) but don't want it to be the uneaten thing at the end of the table. ;-)...
I agree!! For this radio there is really no need to buy the RT Systems software as chirp will do a good job of programming it. I'm sure RT systems does as well, and the support/cable and software is awesome!
Does anyone know anything about these?
I'm guessing since Yaesu is not making the radio anymore an Enterprising Chinese company has started making it either with or without the permission of Yaesu...I wonder what the build quality and price will be once they get proper distribution?

I saw these accessory prices....they are like Yaesu only more! ...Maybe they should try to bring them down to a realistic price...then we might buy them and not look for alternative....They are digging their own grave...

If you like APRS stuff...a balloon was released yesterday from San Jose, CA that crossed the Rockies and now has been crossing the Atlantic...It just checked in at the Azores 160 MPH 109K Ft Altitude, on its way to the African Continent...you can look at it on APRS.fi and search for K6RPT-11 put...
Thanks for the report on the TS590 I believe this will be my next HF radio hopefully in early 2012. I would love to hear more feedback on it. FT 950 is a monster compared to it and I like the solid feel...do you miss your 950 at all or are you happy you made the trade?

I agree...I was holding out for it, but now the price is higher and the features are less...I have decided to go up to the D710A instead and enjoy APRS and other features from the Kenwood perspective...I have been solely Yaesu but would like to try some of the features of the D710A. $300 for a...
