Not to sound like a wise a$$, but Yaesu would be the place I'd contact.  You may have an outside chance of buying a toasted FT8800 where the guts are fried, but the control head is OK.

That's a bad situation... I've traded email with a few friends who have had their control heads ripped off (idiot thieves thought it was the radio). My understanding is that the control head costs about as much as the whole radio when purchased through Yaesu (no other source for new OEM).

I'd search eBay regularly for an 8800 that's been fried. Might try the WTB ("Want to Buy) sections in the classifieds here and on QRZ.

Good luck and 73 de Carl AJ4DW
