Re: display replacement

What exactly leads you to believe that your VR-500 needs a new display?

I don't know if the problem was addressed by Yaesu.
But there is a well documented issue with the display showing odd things 
after the unit shut it self off due to dead batteries.

The solution may be as simple as a full reset of the cpu.
I suggest going into the groups archives and reading a few threads on the 
subject.
Ie. Display getting weird and double line in bandscope (Sept 2003) and Funky 
display (June 2008).
There may be others, I just did a quick scan of my VR-500 folder.

Good Luck

Hello all,

Had a VR-500 given to me.  Radio works but display needs to be replaced.
What would be the least expensive route to take to accomplish this. Thanks 
for your help.
