Yaesu Releases the FT-25, FT-65
FT-25 and FT-65, is Fusion next?
Yaesu has released the FT-25 (VHF only) and FT-65 (Dual band). But where’s the FT-70?
The 25 and 65 share some common features that are interesting:
Longer battery lifetime (always good)
Drop in fast charger (2.5 hrs) included!!!!
Unfortunately a new battery type, but that’s progress
Replacement batteries are much less expensive
IP54 and MIL-810-C,D,E
3-year warranty
FT-25 $139
FT-65 $169
Hmmmm, I wonder what the FT-70 will cost. (Info on the FT-70 comes from minimal information published on the FCC web site.)
