Just purchased an FT-60R. In the sunlight, it has a discoloration on
the display that sometimes obscures. (Sometimes worse than other
times.) With polarized sunglasses on, this problem is severely
exacerbated! I went to the retailer, who examined several of these --
all had the same problem. Is there a fix for this?

The LCD displays work by polarizing the light (very simple example). When
you use the polarized sunglasses they block the already polzrized light.
The short of it is that it difficult to use the glasses with that kind of
display.
