Hello Jack,
The info you heard second hand about most Yaesu HF radio's being
discontinued is totally false. Let me set the record straight.
The FT-1000/D will be around another 3-4 years.
The FT-1000MP will be marketed for a long time.
The FT-920 is only 1 year old, so this also has many years left.
The FT-900/CAT is due to go away in May/June of this year.
The FT-840 has many years to be marketed.
The FT-736R will probably go away later this year, But remember this
radio has been on the market for over 10 years.
Last but not least... The exciting new FT-847 will start shipping in the
U.S. in early March.
Best Regards and 73's,
Kevin Karamanos
Director of Sales and Marketing
