I have had the VAPORS for one ever since they were announced. Its not that
I couldn't order one, but in the past when I order a new radio in 6 months
the new A or D version came out, and mine never did have all of the
features of that newer radio. That happened with my Tand R 599 Kenwood
Twins, IC-737, my Ft100, FTDX3000. Need I go one.
I am going to wait until they get all of the field mods done, and the list
of people on the waiting list goes away and the price goes down. My Ft-847
is working just fine.
So all you that are going to do the trouble shooting on my next radio, I
thank you in advance.
