Hi All,
Does anyone here know anything about the Yaesu FTM-350AR (or the 350R)? I keep gazing at it (pretty radio ;-P), but I am having a hard time finding reviews, pros/cons, etc. Maybe someone could shed some light on its APRS capabilities? I see that it is supposedly full duplex – does anyone know if it is truly full duplex? It looks like a pretty sweet radio, I just don’t understand while I can’t find anyone that knows anything about it.
Any other information pertaining to it would be highly appreciated.

Zach,
It has been discussed a bit here, much more on APRS forums. For reviews by users:

As usually with eHam, toss out the extremes, both good and bad.
For a full QST review, see the January 2011 issue.
