Hi, sorry this is a bit late, only just seen your video. This is a known problem and Yaesu (Japan) have issued a fix for it. I am in the U.K. and bought the FTM-200de new from one of our emporia. After changing the unit once, and finding the same problem, I contacted Yaesu (U.K.) who immediately recognised the issue. I sent the main unit back to them and it came back fairly quickly.. fixed, no more noise. Apparent there was a batch of radios (not known how many) that got shipped with this problem. The fix involved 6 extra components (3 caps and 3 resistors) of additional 'de-coupling' in the audio chain. You should get in touch with your local Yaesu main distributor and complain. Steve, G1VQV.
I have a friend and local ham just bought one sounded like it still exists however does not sound as significant on his as my 200. Out of all the mobile radios I have only ever heard this on the 200
@@rash0401 thanks for the info. Thinking of getting one for the car. Probably won't be an issue but it's a shame that Yaesu hasn't addressed the problem.
@@Chris-hy6jy have to admit even with that flaw It still may have some of my FAVORITE features on it for a radio. Awesome radio especially when it's on sale.

Did Yaesu fix this problem in later radios?
