Where the FT-991A only has a dummy load. So I use the IC-7100 for repeaters. And I use the FT-991A for my hotspots\/nodes. This works well. I also use my FT-991A for HF when the HF mood strikes me. That&#8217;s not very often. As shown in the picture, I have desk mics for both radios. And&#8230; these are now my only two desktop radios.
