My first 2 amateur radios were Yaesu and Iβve had 3 total. Didnβt keep any because the Icom UI suited me better and seemed easier to deal with in emergency conditions.
Since then Yaesu has improved their UI and their more recent radios seem really nice. Iβve actually looked into potentially replacing my ID-5100. I really wish Icom would refresh some of their venerable models.
