Most of the guys I know who do fusion that I know really like it. That yaesu also gets good reports.

There's a little bit of fusion activity in our area but most of the activity is on DMR. Plain FM repeaters are ghost towns, just announcing the time every hour like glorified alarm clocks.

DMR is my favorite, and the Anytone 578 Pro III "triband" rig is the new sweet spot. I have older DMR radios including some Motorola's so I'm a bit old school.

But if most your activity is going to be FM you probably be better off getting one of the ham focused radios even though the any tone is a lot easier to use than previous DMR rigs.
