Yes, I had a Yaesu FT7100 a couple of years ago that had 2 receivers.  I bought it figuring it would do full duplex, but it didn't.

Wish Yaesu would come out with a replacement for the FT847.  Something like the FT991A but that does full duplex.  50 watts on VHF and UHF would be fine.

Also wish they would replace the FT857, a mobile sized radio that does HF/VHF/UHF.
And make it easier to use than the FT891.  I usually don't complain about ergonomics but the setup of the FT891 was bad.  The noise reduction would turn off and the width would reset to default every time you changed bands or even VFOs in the same band.  And the method for changing bands and modes was just stupid

Greetings, All.

 

I own several different Yaesu transceivers with two independent receivers. They are not full duplex radios.

 

Having two independent receivers does not necessarily make them full duplex radios. Don’t write that $35 deposit check just yet!

 

Cheers,

Frank

It's looking like the new Yaesu FTX-1F is going to be full duplex :-)
