Guy you're being way too kind to Yaesu and JA1MP. For the record, it took
Yaesu 13 years (!) to fix the key clicks that began with the FT-1000 (and
repeated in the 1000MP, 1000Field, 1000MkV, etc). It's very ironic that the
FT-1000MP (so named for JA1MP) is probably responsible for 95% of the clicks
you hear on the air today. I will personally never buy another Yaesu
product for all the key click grief they have created.
I have not doubt that Wayne would be working on a fix within 13 minutes (NOT
13 YEARS) of hearing about similar problems in the K3...and I've had some
personal experience to back that claim!
