Has anyone any comments on a Yaesu VX-1.
These are the problems I had with my VX-1:
Bad battery contact (lid of battery compartment) causes the VX-1 to
occasionally switch itself off.
In one of these incidents all parameters settings (S meter and squelch
levels) went haywire and I had to reprogram them all.
Bob stated the VX-1 would not receive AM/FM broadcast. Mine definitely does!
There is free software around which makes it easy to fill the VX-1 memories
via the PC.
I still like my VX-1 because of its small size. Its power of 0.5W is
sufficient for my purposes.
