Yaesu FT-791 fact or fiction?
A few years ago there was a rumor going around that a new version of the Yaesu ft-817 would come on the market “pretty soon”. This new model would be called the Yaesu FT-??? Name.
The FT-817nd has been the favorite of many radio amateurs for as long as it exists, which is now about 10 years. For years the HAM radio community is hoping for a new version to update and refresh the FT-817nd.
I just came across some info regarding a replacement for the road warrior FT-817 ? I have read some comments on blogs that wrote about the FT-791. Some seem to be drooling while others see it as wishful thinking. I did try a link on one blog that boasted of a Yahoo group for the FT-791. The "up coming rig" sure does boast of some very impressive improvements.

Hopefully there will be a new model coming up of the FT-817nd or another type of QRP rig from Yaesu.
