The FT-101EE is the HF Transceiver currently owned by the Club. It is one of the original pieces of Club Kit rescued from the skip.

The Transceiver achieved several contacts across Europe in a recent SSB contest on 40m, and so has been verified to work!

A PDF copy of the manual can be found here.
