Just got off the phone with a national amateur radio vendor, asking if they had the cable for my FTM3200DR for sale. I was told they have the cable with the RT-Systems ADMS software, but not the cable by itself. I told the salesperson that I didn't need the software, that I had used CHIRP for years and he proceeded to tell me "You know, you're not supposed to use CHIRP with Yaesu radios...." I cut him off before he got finished with his statement and told him that it was an old wives' tale and not true.
That's the second time I've heard the same propaganda from that particular vendor's sales team. 73 de W5NNH On Wed, May 22, 2019 at 9:54 AM Peter J.
