I guess u either like or hate that 3d view, can we set an option to goto 2d,.. also the red trim around the screen is annoying, Im a huge Yaesu fanboy, but would like to see more user settings on the colour n style on the screen, this keeps me from purchasing this radio.
I agree... love or hate it, you should be able to select it. Maybe if enough people ask Yaesu for it, they'll include customization options in a firmware update?
A few more questions for Yaesu. Why are these radio's, the FTDX101D and the FTDX101MP not getting any of the fine details right? First off, the fit and finish looks alittle cheap. Yaesu radios like the FT-920 and the FT-1000MP Mark V had "gold" inlay around their base feet. This added a touch of "class". The Mark V also had nice rubberized knobs, not cheap plastic like the new Yaesu radios. I could go on, but I won't.
Okay...I had to bring this up. Why no built-in LAN/Ethernet port? After spending thousands, I don't want to buy an external unit. Seperate VFO's would have been nice too.
@@HamRadioOutlet That would be nice, but I have never known them to listen to their consumers. I love Yaesu equipment, just wish they test marketed ideas and concepts outside their corporate sphere before going to production.
*_I would be a lot more impressed with Ham Radio Outlet if they supplied you with a camera that did not shoot in 360p. Did they find that camera in their attic? I don't think you can even buy a 360p camera anymore. You are trying to promote a high end rig with a very low resolution camera. Plus your audio levels are all over the place. With all due respect it just does not work._*
What a disgusting mentality, always something to complain. If I had a shop, i would forbid that guy to buy from me. So sad where humankind can end up. Man, I am sorry for your wife, provided you still have or ever had a wife... and your mom, oh Lord, your mom...
This is a wonderful outstanding first class radio. But I don’t know why you wanted to start out talking about that horrible 3-D spectroscope that nobody liked at the very beginning. I hope that is fixed with a future upgrade. You must know that’s the most horrible thing on there why should you start with it. I would leave it to the last minute and instead show them all the wonderful good things this rig has.

@@kevinkc3onohelijeepworld953 Sensei means "Teacher" (literally, one who has gone before). Yes, it is indeed used in martial arts - where it means "Teacher". But martial arts is a tiny portion of the places where "Sensei" is used. It's used in schools everywhere in Japan - where it means "Teacher". It's used as a sign of respect to your elders, or seniors (seniors, those who have more experience) - where it means "Teacher", someone from whom you can learn something. It's used by students of calligraphy, tea ceremony, rugby, music and painting - where it means "Teacher". What does "Ham Radio Sensei" mean? It means "Ham Radio Teacher". Why use it? Because it combines my love for Ham Radio and for... yes, Martial Arts, something I've been involved in for 47 years (as of the date of this reply). There, you learned something. Onnegaishimasu.

I love all the information videos from HRO, and love our host Katie, she really does a great job!
Thanks so much, Joe. Glad we are putting out videos you enjoy!
Great information, I love HRO my number one radio source!

Excellent video. Informative, educational and fun to watch! Nice to see a US dealer do these types of technical discussions. Thank you Katie and Chip!

absolutely a must have radio! salute from Brazil
I’m happy with my FT-450D I got at HRO in Atlanta. Koz is the man
Just purchased from HRO and awaiting delivery. Great video! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for your business, Steve. I'm sure you'll love your new radio!
How do you like it I’m thinking about getting one
@@KE6DOA It's very nice. Had it for a month now and it is a great rig.
@@steveventura5077 I ordered mine yesterday but I went ahead and got the MP model
As a Yaesu fan I approve. Nice radio!
Thanks, Spike!
Hi Chip, I recognize that "I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance" from your Morse vs. SMS text contest!!
Very nice Rodeo the only issue I have if you are in a dark room you cannot see what buttons you need to press nothing is lit up really
Not many radios have back-lighted buttons, unfortunately.

Great questions for Yaesu. Let us know what they say. My guess is... they determined a price point and built a radio to fit it.

That would be a great question for Yaesu.

I thought the video quality was good and showed the speakers and features well.
