[Yaesu] FT-847 / CAT / FAN / poor action from Yaesu

[billybobfisher@juno.com]

I have had quite a different experience in dealing with Yaesu !!! I
e-mailed Yaesu on a Wed about 7pm & got a response the very next
morning....They  have provided me with excellent customer service so
far...I plan to send my FT-847 to  Yaesu after the Sept VHF contest...to
have the CAT mod, & the volume mod done...I went to their web site &
emailed it from there...maybe that will help...I'm sure they will let you
return your rig to them...* have the mods done too....
Dont know about the fan mod...my early model doesnt seem to have a
problem....
