I have seen the factory prototype of this rig.. VK6RO


grogers22 <[email protected]>
 

At the vk6 hamfest on november 3rd 2002, the importer of yaesu had a
factory prototype model [which did not work] on the table. this rig
is BIG, about 2 817 on top of each other and a bit longer.
it will not be sold in vk until about may 2003.

the importer had to return the unit to japan the next week.

cheers graham vk6ro

Graham,

It sounds more like the size of the 100D. Did your importer tell you
anything about the specs other than it is HF, 6 m, 2 m , and 70 cm?

Also, what market are they addressing with this radio?
