There was an incident on January 17, 2016 when lightning struck the antenna and destroyed all radios and appliances! My main FTDX3000 also broke and I had to buy another FTDX3000 from Tomei Denshi in March 2018 and sent it back!
But we kept it for seven years, until 2024, without even taking it out of the box. And when I turn it on, the LCD is cloudy and even flickers!
I called Yaesu and asked if they could supply the display unit as a part. We can't supply parts. The main unit must be sent back to the factory for repair. I can't accept direct sending from the Philippines, so please send it through my home. I can't even ship overseas after the repairs are done.

I was doing some research on the Internet and found that Yaesu America We found that the company sells parts for display units
However, I can't buy it right away for 40,000 yen including shipping.
I had no choice but to remove and transplant the display unit from the FTDX3000 that was damaged by lightning. As a result, there was no flickering and the cloudiness was a little better, so I decided to use it as it is for a while.
