Cliff, W3KKO, you are a genius. I don't care what anyone says about you. Thank you. That seems to be the only thing I did not try. Removing the CAT (either from the radio or the PC) fixed the issue.

I solved this issue with my ALS-500 by installing the AD5X relay conversion.. The open frame relay used in some of the Ameritron amps is extremely slow in some cases. Simple to build and install the

hOW DO YOU HAVE THE RADIO AND ANTENNAS GROUNDED? K3CLT Chuck Tobias

New observation. If I use a tone generator that is online, and use that to key the radio, the repeater opens. If I have to tone generator level loud enough, I can hear and compare the tone from the

1, move the antenna 1/2 wavelenth towards or away from the repeater direction. It may be at the "null". 2, did you use a watt meter in line to determine if there is any power output? 3, program a

Thanks, I'll look into the deviation and mic gain. Tests last night of resetting the processor in the 857D resulted in no change. After about 5 resets and manual configuration on VHF with TEN and

Try unplugging all plugs from the rear of the rig, not including power and your VHF antenna.? Turn the rig off, wait a minute, then back on. After checking that all your repeater settings are

IF the Amp allows remote Key for PTT I would key the Amp first then the radio that way you don't trip the alarm. Also Check out Page 16 of your manual and make sure you have the right settings with

Sounds like a real puzzle. I wonder if the deviation is set too high in your 857. If, for example, you are somehow set for wideband FM then you will have a deviation of your FM carrier that is out of

No, the PTT is not cabled to the amp. Right now I'm using the CAT/Linear miniDIN port with an RCA male plug connected to the amp Relay port for TX/GND keying. When the hand mic is used, the relay in

If you have access to a Service Monitor check the no-mod tone only deviation, should be around 0.7KHz if it is transmitting the tone. Mitch N4MF

Brian, have you tried to use any other 2m or 70cm frequency to communicate on with the 857D. It sounds as if, possibly, you are not transmitting out of the 2m/70cm side of the radio. You can check

Thanks Les. That is a great test and I wish I had thought of it before. The quick answer is no, the 857D with T:107.2 did not open the sql of the HT with a R:107.2 receive CTCSS. So there we go. The

Hello Brian, Thanks for the comprehensive details and it seems like you're doing things well. I only have a few more thoughts: - You mentioned you tried turning the HT to act like repeater (same

One more point about the HT antenna:? it probably gives a very high SWR for the 857D.? The 857D (like most rigs, especially if they're capable of running more than a very few watts) is designed to

What does THIS statement mean? Why is that? Your VHF antenna for 2 meters NEEDS to be connected to the VHF/UHF port on the FT857 or you have no VHF energy going anywhere! I hope that helps and sorry

When you key the 857, dies the HT squelch break? 73, --Hank KB4MTO / TA5ZC https://www.hamradio.hanklambert.com

Did you verify that the 857D is producing about the right amount of RF power? Can you hear the 857D transmitting when the HT is receiving 146.13? If yes, try this: Set the HT to receive on 146.13,

Brian, Since you have the hand held. Key the 857 and listen on the HT.? Do you hear the tone?? I have a 857 and it accesses the repeaters fine., BUT you have to have all of the RPT/TONE requirements

I was once told half a century ago by an old timer, "It does not matter if you have the latest expensive radio or a battered homemade thing, both will be equally humbled for the lack of a decent
