Yaesu FT-290R II

My trusty Yaesu Yaesu FT-290R II.  I had started with the original FT290 when I first got my licence, but upgraded when this model came out.  Worked most of Europe on it when I first got it, but now it is mainly used as my APRS radio, mainly  on 24/7  when I am here.   It has the  linear on the rear giving around 20 watts output.  A great little radio,  which I could still take portable if needed.
