It was an issue with older models- apparently fixed. None of my Yaesus are that new.Not in my experience w/ VX-150, VX5R & FT-8800R - YMMV.

I think that the $30 radio someone has is a lot better than the $150 radio they don't.Somehow, I can't think of a good reason to have a radio on a rally like the Chinese units that are so complicated to program or need a computer to program.
Well... it's hard to find a counterpoint to that.I think that the $30 radio someone has is a lot better than the $150 radio they don't.
For B5/B6 programming I'd recommend CHIRP software and a FTDI cable.Just picked up two Baofeng UV-B5 for under $29 each. Now I need to get my license and figure out how to use them.
Press on,Ordered those too. Took my class and my test is tomorrow.
