    FS: Yaesu FTM350R w/gps & Programming Software

    For Sale, 9 month old FTM-350R with (FGPS-1) GPS and ADMS-350 programming software. Radio was very seldom used and in mint condition. I had it installed in my vehicle the entire time.

    FTM-350 and Right Side Squelch or Static Issue

    Something strange is happening today with my FTM-350. It’s been running great all week and today on the way home I noticed APRS was not updating like it normally does.

    Who has or plans on getting a FTM-350.

As to why or will it be added later is up to Japan. What this means is no sharing or organizing of frequencies. I...

    VX-8R Anti-glare display question.

    You guessed it, another question from the newbie. I'm just making sure I didn't get a bum radio. Today is my second day trying out my new VX-8R. One thing I noticed today was some type of shadow or anti-glare on the screen when the radio is off. Almost looks like smudges. I notice it comes...

    Strange popping sound when VX-8R is scanning both channels

    Today while I was working the local ham repeaters on Ch-A and my local Public Safety on Ch-B, I was hearing a popping sound when one channel (A) was scanning and (B) was stopped on a transmission. The popping sound was in synch with the frequencies flashing by on Channel A. Is this normal? I...
