To order a Pig Rig or not to order???

OK guys,
Big dilemma here. Should I buy a Pig Rig kit or not? Here's why I question the purchase, I have a FT-817ND here. Why do I need another rig? I got the bucks but I chicken out when it comes to spending those bucks :( Help me fellow piggies :)

Buy the PigRig as a backup, incase the 817 fails. Try running that by your wife.

Never hurts to have a good quality backup rig , that can be also battery powered , like the 817 , and the price is right .

IF your going to be a real piggie, you must learn to wollow in it.

Otherwise, you may as well reserve a room in the chicken coop.

I never heard of having too many rigs.. :)

Mike,

Oh my!!!! Never heard of such a dilemma. It certainly never raised it's ugly head around my shack. Maybe you could fall back on the quote by a famous mountaineer when asked why he climbed a mountain, "Because it is there"! If I am ever faced with that dilemma that is what I am going to rely on to get me over the hump!!!

Let me see.....

I have an FT-817ND, K1, RockMite 40, Cub 40, and now piggy !!!!

What was your question ?????

Besides, I don't think your friends will believe you when you tall them you built the FT-817, unless of you can convince them "Yaesu" is your middle name ????
