    VX8R- How do you delete Digipaths?

    Nope there seems to be no way to get a space while in the Digi Path menu. I just tested work around that seems to work and APRS likes. Basically you go into the paths that you don't want and enter all zeros. This definitely is a bug but seeing as Yaesu doesn't have a computer interface...

    Yaesu VX-8r Review

    Yes I've tried the Bluetooth with both my Callpod Dragon and Jawbone Gen1 headsets and it works well. It's great with the Dragon because it can be paired to both my phone and radio at the same time. The BH-1 and BH-2 Yaesu headset are still not compatible at this time (got that directly from...
