Re: New Yaesu VHF & UHF models
$895 for a wheel chock from SH? $849 from Andrews. $839 here http://www.radiogearpro.com/main/produc ... cts_id=776 Free shipping but only 12 months warranty.

Re: New Yaesu VHF & UHF models
Speaking of the FTM-350R... has anyone got one yet, or know of anyone that does? Any comments?

Re: New Yaesu VHF & UHF models
Just a comment.. for the price you can buy two FT-7900 from Andrews and have change. You 'd have to really want APRS, stereo broadcast, stereo line input, barometer and optional Bluetooth. Actually, sounds pretty good
I wonder if it's DIN size.

Re: New Yaesu VHF & UHF models
Don't forget you have to buy the optional GPS for the FTM 350r as well if you want APRS so that makes it less appealing.robbage wrote:Just a comment.. for the price you can buy two FT-7900 from Andrews and have change.

There are 10 types of people in this world. Those that understand binary and those who do not.

Re: New Yaesu VHF & UHF models
Good point, the PDF manual gives no indication if you can plug a standard NMEA 0183 RS232 GPS in, so probably not. Actually the PDF manual doesn't even show the rear end of the radio.
