Yaesu's Discontinued Micro HT Lineup The Vx1r-2r-3r

Here is general comparison of the 3 Micro Dualband Ham radios from Yaesu. Starting from 1997 and ending about 11 years later , three models were produced. There isnt too much information on these radios so I wanted to do an overview and comparison of some, not all of the features on these radios and some of the pros and cons.

Great video, I have all three of these radios. Love them. I'm a micro radio nerd. I have bought all off of ebay. I even have the AA adapter for the Vx-1r. 2 years ago at a local ham convention a guy walking through had the Vx-1r on a lanyard. The second I saw it I wanted one. Took a few to figure out exactly what it was but once I did I was hooked. Anyways great video I'll have to check some of the others out, 73 K0MYK
