That's the positon I've taken, right to their faces at ham shows, including the time the Yaesu national guy was bold face lying (and knew it) about D-STAR being Icom proprietary. (I happen to like Yaesu radios, have 3 hf rigs by them 817, 847, and 100 -- but won't buy a radio from them until they start putting D-STAR in their VHF/UHF stuff) ... At least the Alinco reps acknowledge it would be a good thing to add D-STAR to their lineup.
