привет, ребята! Я прошу прощения за мой плохой английский.
Я прошу вашей помощи. Я собираюсь купить две радиостанции.
Один для обустройства дома и один для автомобиля.
Теперь я рассматриваю, чтобы купить дом для Yaesu FT-DX5000 / Kenwood TS-590S / Icom IC-7600 / IC-9100, я прошу вашего совета в выборе между этими станциями.

И для моего автомобиля я рассматриваю между YAESU FT-897 и FT-817ND
Что вы мне посоветуете? любое мнение!
спасибо. Джон.

If it were me I'd buy the Kenwood updated TS-590SG not the S model for home and the FT-897 for mobile. The 817 is a qrp rig meant mainly for portable use, the 857 is not.

Thank U !! I am grateful for your answer to me! I agree to the FT-897 for mobile devices.
with regard to the model for the house I am inclined more to the Icom IC-7600 because it is harvested in Japan.
I also like Kenwood but it's going in China and Indonesia today.
It confuses me.
 
Kenwood is still a Japanese manufacturer as far as I know. Don't get the real Kenwood confused with the companies selling cheap Chinese vhf/uhf handheld radios and placing a Kenwood brand on them. Those are the equivalent of ham radio knockoffs and are not made by Kenwood Japan. The 590SG is getting great reviews across the board.
 
today I bought YAESU FT-817ND!

left to collect money and buy IC-7600 !! and it will be a fun weekend!
