When their replacement for the FT817ND was announced most people groaned that they could miss out on such an opportunity.
Way back in 2010 I suggested a possible successor. They did something that, in my view, was totally pathetic and underwhelming totally "missing the boat" and doing the minimum to overcome supply issues and nothing to make it a decent step forward.
The photo shows what many of us were hoping for 11 years ago!!
Since then they have had some fine SDR transceivers, but no attempt to get into the QRP portable market leaving many people to wonder if they have lost their way or have no money or are considering leaving the market.
My message is simple - Yaesu wake up!!
