I need to dismantle the display in this radi as I have to move one
display from a defect radio to a radio wth a defect display.

Problem is, ho do I get to it. I am able to get off the outer cover,
that's no problem. So far I looosen 3 screws to be able to remove the
print card on which the display is mounted. But here I encounter a
problem. It seems it's holding thight in the upper left ccorner, near
the volume knob. But I can't see any more screw to loosen.

I would appreciarte very much if someone could give me a hint on hove
to solve this, or a link to somewhere it may be described.

Kind regards

I had seen a website showing how to change the regular display to a
blue one, can't seem to locate with a quick check.

A good Yaesu dealer may be able to help.

Thanks Gary. I managed myself though. It was quite easy when I
really looked. In addition to the 3 screws holding the print card
there was a ring screwed on to the volume knob. When I unfastened
this the print card came looose nice and easy.

Changing the display was even easier. No soldering, no glue, it was
neatly clipped onto the print card. Off with the defect one, on with
the replacement display, some checking to ensure the whole thing was
clipped on right and voila, I had it all working.

Kind regards

Fortunately, you were smart enough to think it through before going
medieval on it.
