After you see the first couple hundred radios of this model, it becomes apparent that they're not all the same. More to the point, not all the same as your FT101, no matter which one you may have. Was in production quite a while. The FCC crackdown that deleted 10 meters from ham amplifiers also caused Yaesu to lose the 11-meter receive-only band after some year. Maybe 1978?

Fox-Tango's web site should include that kind of historical context. Pretty sure you'll find it there. Won't find it in this post.

Easy to become an 'expert' after the first or third radio of a given type.
