I find it hard to believe it's a business decision when they are designing
a new radio and have a chance to "get it right" this time around since it
only means another 5 or 10 cents worth of parts. Adding additional bands
is childs play and cheap with today's digital IC's.
In my opinion, Yaesu has a management problem.
I design avionics at Honeywell and we listen to our customers.
