review

I had a change to experiment with the FT-991 for an afternoon. The initial frustration I had is that when trying to use one of the many buttons clustered around the VFO my had would touch the knob and inadvertently change the frequency. To me it seemed the buttons were too small and too close with the VFO knob.
