“Hello Operators In todays video we review the Yaesu FT-818, in comparison to the Yaesu FT-817 which came before it. The video goes through the top 5 reasons I believe the Yaesu FT-818, all mode, all band HF VHF UHF radio is a complete fail, as a replacement to the Yaesu FT-817 series. It’s not a slam job. The intent is to open an honest discussion about the community expectations for the Yaesu FT-818, and the Yaesu Field radio strategy going forward. 73 Julian oh8stn”
