My guess:
- VX-200 as a Vertex as it follow the VX designation and is (was) a commercial HT model (we call it here "the Yaesu brick", google som images and you will know why) despite it does says Yaesu and not Vertex, but in the back plate under the belt clip and not in the front.
- FTL-1011/2011 as a Vertex despite the fact that it uses the "FT" designator in the name, this mainly because the radio reads in prominent letters "Vertex" in the front...
I would think it would be confusing to people if it says "Yaesu" on the front, but they have to choose "Vertex" in the menu. I don't think the prefix (FT, VX) makes that much of a difference, but the branding definitely does.
Maybe other people have opinions?
