My
FT-857 is in my truck. Kinda hard to escape the RF there.

That is a pretty good indication you are getting RF back
into the shack and it is getting picked up by the
programming cable

When I left my programming cable plugged into
the FT-857 it would deprogram and reset to 10.000MHz
when I would transmit. Steve kb1chu

I've seen my 857D do some silly stuff if I power up
while it's still connected to a computer that's also
turned on.? If you're doing something like that,
unplug all data, etc cables before turning it on.

Afternoon all on this wet and windy day
here .
Right my FT857D is being a bit of a pain
right now .
I can power it up no problem at all but
that is the ONLY button that
works for at least 10 minutes but all
rotary controls work perfectly it
will Tx/Rx no problem i can change
frequency but not band then it
will suddenly start working correctly .
If i then turn it off providing i turn it
back on within a few
seconds it is fine but leave it 30 seconds
and it has to go thru the
no buttons thing again ..
Anyone got any ideas i am in the UK so the
talk to the tech
department bit is not viable .
Thanks Pete G6NJR
