I love this radio. I’ve had mine for about 6 years now. After my son became a ham he requested the same radio. I wasn’t going to say no 😂. It’s funny though you get a couple of famous KZreadrs finally discover this rugged radio then everyone jumps on the bandwagon. Yeasu has a great product here and I hope they don’t mess with it. I use a SignalStick with BNC and a bnc stubby and the Long Ranger with it. But if I’m on the water I stick with the stock rubber duck to keep the radio 100% waterproof. 73’s

Yup, I did some short videos about 4 years ago, kzread.info/head/PLQhw75mY0x4xSqTOUqsLmlkxCwgtoqQx5&si=tVmD89YDthQCimhb, decided to do one big video, but you are right, the big influencers like this radio.

Ive got one of these... there seems to be a distinct lack of 3.5mm waterproof jack options for things like ptt connecting to earpro. Which is weird because this little guy is probably the best built HT for exactly that kind of use. Hell, id be happy with just a solid (no wire) adapter to fit all the normal 3.5mm jacks.

WX on is when your radio switches automatically to weather channels and back to your scanning WX off will not interrupt your scanning channels

I did the MARS mod on mine, it gives you a 4th band, 6 meters.

Which antenna do you like for 6 meters? I heard that people use a vx-8 antenna.

You DON'T press a PTT without a matched antenna attached, Frank. It can damage or destroy the output stage of the radio. Take heed, beginners, this was a poor demonstration.

Why are you screwing around with this radio without the antenna attached? I guess you want to risk blowing it up. 😊
