I have a VX-7R ,but the screen is going bad, so I'm getting the VX-8R as a reward of getting my General class. They do over price the gps and the adapter, the external mic and and the programning CD.
Hy 2e0bmi!! Thanks to you I have bought some months ago a yaesu vx8E!! It's wonderful!!!I'm loving it and taking pleasure use it everywhere in everyway (also with APRS)!! But I've some question for you:
-the first one is: have you found some problems with ROS on high power trasmission??
-How can you turn the display on blue?? I can't find the way on the menu !!!
dude that's the brooklyn bridge! thanks for your honesty and yeah yaesu is bloody crazy with that gps stuff, I agree. a few years ago I got the vx2 and it sucks the big one.
My main issue with the "big three" is price especially where handhelds are concerned. The VX-8D looked like a better handset than the VX-8G but to have GPS on the 8D it would cost an additional £150 and the accessories (speaker mic etc) are not compatible with my two VX-150's which are still going strong! So for an APRS mobile I think I'd go with the 8G.
I also have a Wouxun UVD1P and has proven to be a decent handheld. RX and TX it seems to be just as capable as a handheld by the "big three".
@ThePeopleneedhelp Baofeng UV-3R ....Please don't assume its going to do all the things a high quality Yeasu is going to do. Its a Chinese copy of a Yeasu....25-40 pounds.

Looks like a nice radio..But a Ht with 6 meters that is a total waste.On 6 meters u need at the very very least is a full size 1/4 wave whip.

@stonesharve Have a look at the VX-8G, It has built in GPS but no 6m (I didn't care about that) and isn't submersible (conforms to IPX5 though).
