ya! there were alot of things to decide which to buy wan lol bt ya lo gt small party somemore thn after a while start raining walau

The whole morning we pening pening deciding what to buy and how to get discounts.. In the end got impulsive and bought something bah..

though a 5/8 n a slimjim will be a very gooood buy

wahahaha dude.. damn funny lar you.. take it easy step by step.. next target for you is mobile rig / swr meter.

most prob will be amobile rig first thn only swr bt bt bt hmm i wan ft8800 bt so exp..haih

ft8800 very best rig.. like 2 rigs in one.. buy 1 free 1 lol...

Second that, I have a 8900 at home and a 8800 in my car. 8800 beats 8900 hands down. Go for the 8800.

Continue to poison our bro!! Wahahahaha..
Seriously need a mobile rig to get the umph..

santa u hav a 8900 ah... i heard over on air another guy using 8900 as well cud it be u? bt haih y so exp wannnnnnnnn
bt y 8800 over 8900?

Nah I cant reach this part of Malaysia with VHF, so the 8900 cant be me. I am currently in KL on duty for 4 months carrying my handy around. I have send back my HF set cos Hotels dont allow me to put up antenna

8800 have separated memory management, when in real world usage, its easier to operate. Right side its own memory and so does the left side.

8900 have shared memory management, easier when first time input. But when use one on standby and the other scanning, it becomes not that smart. Though 8900 you can work around that by using scanning mode to make it feels like separated memory.

More poison for you BingYao, check out the dual bander Icom.

yeah yeasu FT897D All band All mode... would be good... but if budget constrain still wanna get HF rig.. just go IC-718 from Icom... cheaper with less band .. i'm still "menabung" to get a decent HF rig... might settle down with IC-718. until then.. c u all on 2m / 70cm band..
