After testing at FTDNA a few years back I've finally been moved from V to V78a as they roll out their Beta update.
YFull assigned me V78 a long time ago after matching me with three samples from medical studies including one from Algeria (the others are of unknown origin). So it's great to be bumped even further from V78 to V78a now at FTDNA.
I match one other tester at FTDNA, but again they are of unknown origin.
Here are some screenshots, beginning with YFull:

I'm pleased that FTDNA is finally addressing the massive imbalance between their Y and mtDNA products and hope to see other V testers' results here in time.
