[Yaesu] Yaesu 920 decision (to Ron WI5C)

Ron --
I got a 920 about 2 months ago (used) and I cannot think of a better
radio for the price, or even more. This is my first Yaesu.
Probably the most remarkable feature is the absolute ease of working split.
I had an IC-746 for about eight months and never could get to the point
of handling split frequency in a split second like I have with this
radio. I cannot say enough about the ease of the feature on the 920.
I also love the tuning indicator feature for CW.
The DSP really works, and does make a difference on this radio.
I know these are not very technical comments, but then, I'm not a techie,
I'm an operator. If something ever happened to this one, I would
immediately get another as soon as I could afford it!
enjoy,
Clair W1CQD
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>I'm thinking of buying a new FT920 in the near future. I don't know much
about the 920 so was wondering if any of you own one, what do you think of
it, hows the receiver, hows the quality of the radio in general. I now own
Kenwood and Icom gear but I really like the look of the Yeasu radios. I'm
about 99% CW here with a lil PSK thrown. The price is right on the 920, so
if you can, give me a lil info on the radio.
 Tnx,
Ron,
