Re: VR-500 vs. Icom R5

    You'd think Yaesu would have figured out how to ship the things by now. 
I would write a letter (not email, not phone call) to the CEO of the company 
laying out the events -- I bet they would take care of it.  Yaesu is an 
unusual name -- I bet you could find out who the CEO is on the web.

    On plastic scratches:  I've found some wonderful stuff for polishing 
scratches out of plastic.  It's Meguiar's Scratch X, found at auto parts 
stores.  Comes in a big black toothpaste tube.  Great for polishing up CD's 
and DVD's, and even the jewel cases they come in.  (Also works for removing 
light scratches from car finishes!)
