[Yaesu] New rig rumors?

[Ken Hickman]

Hi John, Jerry & Gang,

Does anyone know where I can get my Yaesu FT-840 overhauled?
Are new ones still avilable?
When I get used to using a rig with "forty-leven" push buttons, etc.
I hate having to start over learning a different layout!
Anyone near the greater New Orleans who is capable of overhaul?
Any helpful info appreciated!
Take care,

Ken   N5CM
