First off, they are not in the same price range, the OMNI, even new was
half the cost of the other ones you mention. Secondly, all, and let me say
that again, ALL , radio equipment have / has problems! The first YAESU
FT-1000MP I go worked for about 20 seconds and then went DEAD! The dealer
actually had to talk to YAESU to get permission for me to send it back,
Chip Margelli was the CEO then and gave them permission. The second one
worked fine for many years but now the RIT control is malfunctioning and
probably just a dirty plug on what ever board it is connected to and will
eventually get around to opening it up and fixing it! Kenwood is now
almost out of business because of the rotten rice boards and the plated
through hole going open! Look at the problems TOYOTA is having and KILLING
PEOPLE ! You can't believe in any STUFF ...............

As I almost went down the Omni 6 plus road do I read correctly that a
modern
transceiver competing in the same price arena as the Icom Pro or the FT
1K
series not only chirps but requires regular tweaking?
