After months of speculation it appears Yaesu are on the way to release the successor to the popular 817ND. Although confidentiality agreements between Yaesu and FCC in the USA are in action it’s possible to get some odds and ends of information. The radio will receive 0.1~470Mhz with BNC connection (others not currently known)
The expected timeline is 3~4 months from now until Receive I’ve been told by one dealer but that also can truly mean anything.
