kanstulbrass Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 (edited) Not for nuthin' .... but do you understand what this expression is used to convey in radio communication or Morse Code? Fox-Tango-Fox-Young (FTFY) is used to communicate annoyed frustration: "F-this, F-you." (Just in case you ever get an adverse response to it....) Carry on. That is quite obscure, sorry. I never would have known that. Mine was a fairly common internet reference known as "Fixed That For You". Carry on! Edited May 30, 2011 by kanstulbrass Quote

Just trying to save you from wondering the reason in the event someone w/ experience with military "commo" gives you a funny look or reply.... Quote
Howdy Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 Those Ultratone p/r baritones are sweet, with one of the finest core sound of any baritone. I love the Ultratone p/r mellophones as well. Quote

Geneva Posted June 1, 2011 Posted June 1, 2011 The Olds Ultratones were some of the best G bugles ever made in my opinion (at least the sopranos). I still have a valve-rotor G-F soprano in mint condition. It plays better than the later three valve G bugles. Quote
marzsit Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 i've got 3 of them myself, an ultratone mellophone, long french horn, and a baritone. really would love to find a contra in decent shape...:) Quote

I can get 4. Also a K-90 and a small Kanstul 3V. PM me on this forum for the details. Quote
