[Yaesu] Yaesu VX6R rumor

[Jim Gerke]

John,

The 2m/220/440 VX-6R was submitted for FCC approval during the last week of February. Photos and preliminary operator manual are posted there. Also, there's an ad for the VX-6R in the April, 2005, QST, inside the back cover.

TX power is 5w on 2m/440, but only 1.5w on 220. The radio is water resistant like the VX-7R and uses the same accessories.

73, Jim K5QL
