Over the years I’ve owned many Yaesu radios and I’ve experienced problems with three of them, where the LCD has developed a fault. In the past it’s been a case of lines appearing and obscuring the information behind. Or, crystals have fallen to the bottom of the screen!
With modern colour screens, I was kinda hoping all that was a thing of the past, but sadly, my FT3D started to develop similar problems. It started with a single line and has grown to a rectangular block.
The annoying thing is that this radio has lived a very sheltered life compared to some in my collection. I’ve got bruised and battered HT’s from Quansheng, Wouxon and Baofeng which still have perfect screens. How come their screens remain good?
