This radio is going to be very popular because it seems that a lot of the riticism of the K3's apparent failings seem to have been corrected in the new aesu FT5K design All very interesting ... John snip] I wonder if those who buy the FT-5000 will be able to send emails to a eflector that the CEO's of Vertex Standard will read and post to? I wonder if Vertex Standard will respond to requests for added eatures in their firmware? I wonder if Vertex Standard will allow REAL HAM field testers to test irmware changes before being released? I for one don't think the answer to any of the above will be yes, but could be wrong. That's just my opinion.
