We haven't done one of these in a while.

Let's say you had to pare your station down to one group of equipment, all from a specific manufacturer. What do you keep, and why?

I'm on the fence between my Kenwood 820 lineup, an FT-90x ensemble or an FT-980/YO-901/FTV-901R. Maybe a Drake 7 line.

The Kenwoods and Drakes give me dual receive capability. The Yaesus give me all mode transceive through 432MHz, though I think I can pair a spare R-820 with them as a second receiver.
