How does one download FTBCAT? I found it on a site, but everything I clicked that said DOWNLOAD would download something else, not FTBCAT. I hate it when people do that. Zack W9SZ [email protected]>

FT857 remote operation?
Is there a plug-and-play method, system, or device available for the FT857? I'm moving from a home we built 17 years ago on a rural 5 acre plot into an apartment in a small city. My son lives 10 miles

Re: Atas120a
OEM whips are (or used to be) available through Yaesu dealers for the ATAS antennas. I would assume they still are since the ATAS-120 is still in production. 73, Kent K9ZTV

Re: Atas120a
I was able to loosen the screws based on Ted's reply (Thanks Ted). However, the Larsen replacement whip is slightly "thicker" and I can't insert it in the top of the Atas. Any suggestions. I can grind

Re: FT857 programming software and other Yaesu radios
That's nice to know. I chatted with him many moons ago after purchasing his software for my 857D and 897D. It wasn't a software problem, just a nice conversation. 73, --Hank KB4MTO / TA5ZC --Hank
