>Hi, All
>
>Just bought a new Mark V from a large dealer in the upper midwest.  I
>wanted to be sure that the one I got had the key clicks problem fixed
>during production, so when I un-boxed the unit, one of the first things I
>did was check the serial number.  Mine begins 4K, which indicates a
>manufacture date of September, 2004.
>
>Is this kind of lag time typical?
>
>When I ordered the radio, it was not in stock. I had to wait three weeks
>for the dealer to get the next shipment from Yaesu.  However, ten months
>seems a long time between production and sale of a "new" radio.  Anyway,
>according to past posts to this list mine should be past the "fix date" for
>the key click issue.
>
>Has anyone else had a similar experience?
