[AMSAT-BB] FT-818ND and FTM-400XDR will be discontinued

From John Kruk, national sales manager, so it is official and not a rumor:

ANNOUNCEMENT - Dec.28th, 2022

Please be informed that the production of the FT-818ND and FTM-400XDR will be discontinued. We are forced to make this unfortunate decision due to difficulty we are having with the availability of some components. We appreciate your long-term patronage of the FT-818ND and FTM-400XDR.

There seem to be some of both available, or in the pipeline.

73,

Alan WA4SCA
