[Yaesu] FT847 replacement

According to Vertex/Standard, Japan. This announcement was made at the same 
time they announced that the FT-2000 was replacing the Mark V series.

I haven't heard what will replace the FT-847, but would guess that they're 
either going to bring out an IF-DSP rig with the same band coverage or not 
replace it at all, because the FT-897D does much the same thing.

The 847 is long in the tooth and is ripe for a replacement, but we'll just 
have to see what happens.

73,
Scott, N9AA
