New portable from Yaesu, the FTX-1F


Jed Baer | KD0YMG
 

?
The new FTX-1F is a portable transceiver utilizing SDR technology and provides 6W of power output with the 5670mAh Lithium-ion battery pack (Which enables 9-hours stand-alone operating time on the HF bands, SSB mode, and 8-hours operating time on the V/UHF bands, FM mode based on a 6-6-48 duty cycle). Up to 10W of power output is available when using an external DC power supply.
Early 2025.

It looks very cool. Rumor has it that it will also feature an optional antenna tuner and battery that click onto the back of the unit (although it appears that it's an either/or, e.g. not both at the same time). I'm sure price will be well North of $1K. It's about time that Yaesu released something to compete with the IC-705 and KX2!
