Hello members
I have the opportunity to visit Japan on a fairly frequent basis over the next few years and I am thinking of applying for a Japanese callsign.?? Most of the hurdles I think I can overcome.
However in order to apply for said license I need to supply to the JARL, a technical?standard certification number for my FT 817 nd?? A thorough search of the operator manual that came with the radio fails to mention any such number.?? If I cannot supply the number then I will incur a cost to have the radio tested and certified but being made in Japan, there should logically be a manufacturer's document in existence.
Does anyone know the email contact details for Yaesu in Japan please? ? An email sent to their UK office has gone unanswered so far.
Thanks in advance
