-> A friend wants to sell me his Icom IC-290-H 5/50 watt radio. It
-> handles AM/FM/CW/USB/LSB etc. However, he said that in order to gener
-> tones, it needs a specical microphone that apparently has the
-> tone-injection circuitry in it. He doesn't have one, and bought the
-> radio used so we don't know much about it. PL tones have only become
-> necessary around here quite recently.
 If yuo are going to do any extensive work that requires PL,
Particualrly different PL's, I would say forget it for FM work. It would
make a nice CW or SSB rig if you are interested in that area of the
bands.
