I just bought one, it arrives tomorrow. It’s my 4th Yaesu radio. It’s far superior to the 7300 at a lesser price.

icom in japan have ic 7300 ic 7300m 50w and ic7300s 10w

@DannerPlace 2 года назад

I have one on pre-order to replace my IC-7300. Reason? External monitor DVI-D, and Yaesu's 60dB of mic preamp gain (icom only provides about 40 dB of mic gain).

@peter-vk3acz 2 года назад

I’ll be a sucker for one… a competitor for the 7300? Gee, an all band, all mode replacement for the 857 would have excited me more! Still, for mine, my FTDX 10 is mildly an ergonomic fail with the location of the band button and no back-lit buttons. I liked your chat, obviously unlike a couple of comments here… loved your response to them! Thanks for this video, Hayden! 73, VK3ACZ

@HamRadioDX 2 года назад

Thanks Peter. I think in time we'll see an all mode replacement for the 857, would be good. Yes, some people just need to spread negativity or troll... can't help themselves!

The percentage is backwards. 77% will buy one. The 710 has a higher EHAM rating than the FTdx10. I had the 10, sold it & then bought the 710. The 710 is a keeper and best value out there today.

There isn't such a thing as a USB-A-to-USB-A cable. That is why printers have USB-B cables; you connect the A side on the PC and the B side on the peripheral. In this case, the radio is the peripheral to the PC, so it gets a USB-B port. The USB-A port on the radio is for things that will be peripheral to the radio - such as a mouse for navigating the UI. It's all about USB standards.

@HamRadioDX Год назад

This is incorrect. USB-A to A cables do exist. au.rs-online.com/web/p/usb-cables/1863052

@JeremyTaylorNZ Год назад

@@HamRadioDX Yes, but they aren't kosher. The USB spec originally defined type A and type B differently purposely so that it would not be possible to accidentally connect two power sources together. The ubiquity of USB connectors has seen some corruption of the original intent so yes there are actually cables like this around, but a cursory glance at the wikipedia page shows that USB-A to USB-A cables are flagged "proprietary, hazardous". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_hardware#USB_On-The-Go_connectors That is why I said they don't "really" exist. They do, but they shouldn't. And that is why the manufacturer of these radios has clearly decided that the professional thing to do is to adhere to the USB specification.

@JeremyTaylorNZ Год назад

Well actually I didn't say the don't "really" exist, looking back at what I originally wrote - I said "there isn't such a thing" and I'll stand by that statement for the same reason - they are non-standard deviations from the spec. They *exist* because people have made them, but they aren't "USB" cables.

My mind keeps saying - WHY??? why not a competitor to the IC-705/TX500/X6100/KX2/3 - or an updated FT-857D/FT-818 - why another FT991 upgrade/clone?? what is the market they are trying to address here? However as always - understand what YOU want in a radio and then get the one that ticks the most boxes for YOU. My list will be different to yours and my list doesn't give this a lot of ticks

@jara2546 2 года назад

Many people asking "why a new Yaesu FT710 radio?". But this really is a no brainer, why is this so hard to see? This is more than brilliant marketing from Yaesu. The FT710 is the successor for the FT991-A, that is, partly. The other part is coming little later after the FT710 has been released. It will be maybe the FT810 ( same form, same size of course; placing them nicely side by side together) and is housing a 2 m band radio; a 70 cm band radio and a 23 cm radio. All in one, just like Icom did with the IC7300 and the IC9700 shortly thereafter. Each radio pricing $999,- buying both sets you back just under $1999,- making Yaesu about $700,- more than the FT991-A costs. Just brilliant (!) Other than this; utterly pointless video !

@alvinnorris6523 2 года назад

The different models of 710 are japan and other different country requirements.

@Rob2 2 года назад

Yes, this has been the situation all the time that commercial ham radio equipment exists, and it actually surprises me that they are surprised by that. The whole "I am allowed 10W but just give me the 100W radio I will set it to 10W, honestly!" may work in Australia (as it does here in the Netherlands) but we all know that many of the novice stations will just set it to 100W to work that rare station. So it depends on the legislation if you want to allow that or not. In some countries it is just not allowed, and manufacturers have different models to cater for that market. Have had these all the time. Look for M versions of popular radios, many of them exist. It likely isn't a software option either, but rather a different amplifier with different transistors (in VHF/UHF radios it is a different amplifier hybrid).

@emfmuffin1153 2 года назад

Regarding the conversation about the HDMI connector. I think the radio runner and his opinion is why they think they can get away with it. HDMI has been the standard for 15 years and for him to say oh well it's more expensive or licencing issues is the reason they are okay with it. It's clearly laughable that a 30 dollar raspberry pie has a more capable display output than a 1200 dollar radio with compute components.

@RoelandJansen 2 года назад

there is no reason, none, zich to have a HDMI or DP connector for the signals bening carried. Yaesu does not put 1 kW LDMOS in this rig eiether of a different LDMOS has the needed specs.

@nine7295 11 месяцев назад

So why doesn't an iPhone have an HDMI output? Not even a micro HDMI? And an iPhone can cost more than this radio .

@pauls8456 2 года назад

Your analogy of speed limiting your motorcycle of course actually happens - in many parts of VK you are limited in the motorcycle and car you can use as a beginner rider/ driver. The same used to occur here when novices were limited to. 30W. The same in J land but I understand they kept the rule when we dropped it here. Probably a mistake it would have insulated all the F calls that have got grief for ‘running power’ by using higher power rigs turned down (some didn’t quite know how to do this to the required level).

To qualify for the HDMI licence the hardware has to have a minimum spec for it's output signal HDMI 1.4b at 720p

@bobblacka918 14 дней назад

Has anyone here actually tried the FT-710 with a DVI to HDMI adapter? I recently had a problem with a computer that had only DVI video ports and it wouldn't work with a DVI to HDMI adapter on my new monitor. The problem was that the computer video board required a DVI license or it would shut down. I finally solved the problem by leaving the old worn-out monitor connected to one DVI port and the new monitor to the other DVI port. That made the video board work because it could access the license. But if I disconnected the old monitor even after the computer was fully booted up, the video would turn off immediately. So has anyone actually tried the FT-710 with a DVI adapter? I would like to know before I purchase the Yaesu.

@RoelandJansen 2 года назад

The DVI connector has to do with licensing. Also, the output is just a copy of what's on screen. Same resolution and aspect ratio.
