[Yaesu] More Yaesu garbage....

[KBØNLY]

There is a few black market manufacturers over in China that make them. 
They are not made for Yaesu, these are companies that are making them to 
counterfeit and sell them.  I bought a couple Motorola chargers off ebay 
that said "ship from US" and they came from an un-named po box or suite in 
NY and they were counterfeit products.  Probably the same companies making 
Wouxun and Baufong... LOL

50 hz 220 with the wrong cord on it.  Who builds it?  China?

"I have on that’s only three weeks old, bought from Universal Radio, no 
problem whatsoever, drop it in and it goes red, once charged it goes green."

Strange.  That's how my old ones work.

"Are your batteries OEM or aftermarket, NiMH or NiCD or Lithium?"

Strictly OEM stuff.  Factory radio, battery pack, charger.  Battery NiMH, 
FNB-83, came with the FT-60, was in the box.  Also should mention that since 
the beginning, people complained about the excessively rigid antenna 
spearing them.  They changed the antenna too, so flimsly, it's hard to 
remove once it's tightened, it just twists up.  This is a new set of 
equipment, radio, battery, antenna, charger, all new, all matching, all from 
Yaesu and sold by HRO, no mix and match, no aftermarket stuff.

I double checked the new factory battery on my old charge, just in case 
there was some malfucntion in the new pack causing the new charger to go 
FUBAR, no problems, new radio, new pack, OLD charger, drop it in, red, 
charged green.  Still points to bad chargers.
