I've been working toward this for many years. Finally have it in my possession. It will look excellent with the rest of the CF parts on the Gamma.

Yaesu FTM-100DR, with Diamond antenna (NR770HRKS).

FTM-100DR C4FM/FM Analog 144/430 MHz Dual Band Digital Transceiver
The FTM-100DR’s Dot-Matrix Display and Single Receiver design make it the ideal radio for both entry level and advanced Digital Radio enthusiasts.

The newly designed and compact front display includes a vibrant and highly visible White-LED backlit display (160x40 Full Dot Matrix) and a bright multi-colored Mode/Status Indicator to visibly and clearly inform the operator of the current state of the transceiver. The multi-colored Mode/Status Indicator on the display faceplate indicates what mode the radio is in by changing from Green (Receive Analog) to Blue (Receive Digital) when receiving a signal.

The FTM-100DR utilizes Yaesu’s revolutionary Automatic Mode Select (AMS), as well as a full suite of C4FM Digital and FM Analog features. AMS instantly recognizes whether a transmission is analog or digital and appropriately switches the transceiver operating mode to allow flawless co-existence of both analog and digital communication.

In addition to Automatic Mode Select, the FTM-100DR also incorporates a wide range of System Fusion and analog features, making it an ideal communication product that fits every Amateur Radio Operator’s needs. The FTM-100DR transceiver includes the following state of the art features: Smart Navigation, Digital Group Monitor (GM) featuring telemetry data and ID transmission, a full featured 1200/9600 bps APRS system, built-in high sensitivity 66 channel GPS with Antenna, GPS logging/recording, microSD card slot (for programming and data storage), and Bluetooth hands-free operation. Quick and easy Firmware updates add value and create a unique operating experience by allowing manufacturer upgrades, modifications and additions to software based radio features at no additional cost.

I have those same ikea drawers but in white. They're cheap but they're not bad. The top just sits on mine, there was no way to secure the desktop without adhesive or drilling holes. It doesn't bother me if the top can slide around.

why does your top slide? my drawers came with rubber pads for top. Prevents sliding pretty good

Those pads didn't last long. I didn't think I was sliding the top around all that much but I guess it was enough for them to get shredded. They're 8 years old now and maybe the pads lasted a year or two but they've been gone a long time and I didn't bother to replace them.
Not being attached actually makes it easier to move the whole thing for vacuuming and stuff.
