U20498 Used Yaesu FT-90R VHF/UHF Ultra-Compact FM Transceiver Slightly Dim Display

U20498 Used Yaesu FT-90R VHF/UHF Ultra-Compact FM Transceiver

This pre-owned Yaesu FT-90R is in fair to good cosmetic condition, showing characteristic signs of mobile installation and use. The front LCD screen has noticeable edge fading and general dimness, which makes the displayed digits more difficult to read. Additionally, there is audible fan noise present during operation, the included mobile mounting bracket is warped, and the modular RJ-style plug on the microphone cord appears to have been previously re-terminated/replaced.

The Yaesu FT-90R is a renowned, micro-sized dual-band FM mobile transceiver engineered to fit into the tightest vehicle cabins and portable setups. Despite its ultra-compact form factor (measuring just 4 x 1.2 x 4 inches), it delivers up to 50 watts of RF output on 2 meters (144 MHz) and 35 watts on 70 centimeters (430 MHz). Built around a rugged aluminum die-cast chassis with forced-air cooling, it features wideband receive coverage, 186 memory channels with alpha-numeric labeling, CTCSS/DCS encode and decode, and a detachable front control head for versatile remote dash mounting.

The radio does RX and TX fine. We will warranty The RX and TX but nothing else
