   [1] [2] With internal battery pack, on board keyer, its all mode/all band capability and flexible antenna, the set is particularly well suited for portable use. The FT-817 is based on a similar circuit architecture as Yaesu's FT-857 and FT-897, so it is a compromise transceiver and incorporates its features to its low price ($670.- at its 2001 ...

4. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_(radio)

   In transmission, a radio transmitter supplies an electric current to the antenna's terminals, and the antenna radiates the energy from the current as electromagnetic waves (radio waves). In reception , an antenna intercepts some of the power of a radio wave in order to produce an electric current at its terminals, that is applied to a receiver ...

5. Antenna tuner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_tuner

   An antenna tuner, a matchbox, transmatch, antenna tuning unit (ATU), antenna coupler, or feedline coupler is a device connected between a radio transmitter or receiver and its antenna to improve power transfer between them by matching the impedance of the radio to the antenna's feedline. Antenna tuners are particularly important for use with ...
