I like how you used the tape on the sdram micro card. I've ran into issues on other things (like zumspot) where it's incredibly hard to grab and pull the sd card out without.

For anyone considering a mobile dual-bander to install in a vehicle with the head separated from the transceiver body you should be aware of the following: I was planning to save a few dollars and get the FTM-300DR which seemed to have all of the operational features I wanted and more. However, when I looked closely at how to actually install it into the vehicle I saw a different picture. If the transceiver is mounted in the back of the vehicle and the control head in the front, the FTM-300 requires three separate cables go go between the transceiver and the control head. 1. The control cable, 2. a microphone cable (there's no mic jack in the head) and 3. a speaker wire, and you will probably need to buy and mount a separate speaker up front (there's no speaker or speaker jack in the FTM-300 control head). The FTM-500, by comparison has speakers in both the control head and the transceiver body and has microphone jacks in both places as well. So all you need is a single control cable between the two parts. A much simpler installation.

Finally installed my FTM-500 after running the 400 in my Toyota for 2 years. I love the PMG function. Is there a way to scan the memory without scanning the WX frequencies?

I’m looking seriously at this radio and it’s seems to be a bit Marmite. I want it for mobile use but don’t see many U.K. based hams using it outside of their QTH. So how simple would it be to use under mobile conditions? Don’t mind programming at home APRS is not something I’ve ever used. Welcome feedback regards Mike

Overpriced gimmick that's useless for Simplex Operations, aka when the SHTF!. IF you want to play "Internet" just USE your damn phone!
