This looks cool.
It just might get me on the air.

Not to hijack this thread, although I’m sure this question will.
What’s are ham radios used for? I know that you can talk to one another like the old citizen band. I know this is a basic dumb question not trying to be a smarta**. Never known anyone with one and I see lots of people on here jumping on the radio deals. Just curious...

MSRP is $520.00. Since it appears that all ham gear is price-controlled, that is likely to be the price upon release.I'm looking around and Ham Radio Outlet is taking reservations for $35.00. DX Engineering is taking reservations for $50.00. What do you think the price point for this radio is going to be?

(Yahbut you came in just as well on the adjacent channel repeaters too, hi hi).My days of buying expensive portables are long over. Nobody on the local repeater ever knew I was on a Baofeng until I told them.

Well, it's a touchscreen - not a VX-1.ugh, another radio without a num pad
Nice!I'm late to the party, but I just picked up an FT3D at HRO. Charging it up as I type!
Nice!
I didn’t even check in to the party...got mine in January (also from HRO) and like it so far...except for the time it took to charge with the provided charger. Bought the faster charger - worth the money,

The successor to the successor to the successor to the successor has been discontinued.I have a Yeasu FRG7, ... I imagine it falls int the "antique" catagory by now.
I love it! My understanding is that the FT5 and FT3 are very similar, the exception being a new functionality to the color display and a better speaker. I would have waited (like two days?) to buy the FT5, but I had no idea it was about to be released. Anyway, the FT3 is fantastic. I'm still learning about its capabilities, all of which are new to me as a new ham. Steep learning curve, but I really enjoy it and I'm having a ball. It seems very durable and I've found it easy to program with RT sys. software.Any update to this? Was it worth it? How is it holding up? I'd love to hear some details.
