Assuming "antenna magnetic cartop vertical" is UHF... How did you test the receive ? I would? not transmit UNTIL the RX gets some signal - hence antenna is actually connected. Again - if it is UHF

I mounted mine right above the battery in the trunk of my Toyota Camry Hybrid and remote the head to the dash area. For years I used a trunk-mounted Dual-band antenna for VHF/UHF and a hustler on a

If the problem continues once you've tried a known good power supply or battery l'd look at the antenna and feed line. Most any adequately powered radio will receive something if you simply insert the

Thanks for helpful comments. I was wondering if it’s a grounding issue. Have been trying to avoid a direct connect to battery which is why I tried the 6pin cig lighter connector to power the rig. I

Brought my FT857 from the shack to my new plug in hybrid car and powered with 6pin cig lighter connection . antenna magnetic cartop vertical. I get power but no send or receive signal. Thoughts ?

Compton, I've tried CW, FM and PKT... I'm using 7.050 MHz to test, and have made sure the meter and dummy load are connected to the HF antenna output. For CW, using a straight key, I see setting 5w,

Hello again, Kevin It's been so long since I set the SignaLink/FT857 up I have forgotten a lot of the details., so this is a good review for me.? Yes, I am using a CAT cable (it's an 8-pin mini-DIN)

Running Windows 8.1. I have the 6pin Data cord and the 8pin CAT cord, but in all other respects - pretty vanilla. I run VHF to a Diamond groundplane antenna up about 30 feet on the roof and a solid

VY happy to hear that. I still don't understand the wide discrepancies in our settings...are you running under Windows or some other OS?

Hmm...I'm thinking maybe it's a PTT issue rather than lack of audio/modulation. Your settings are very different from mine. Some of my settings are as follows.? Under "ARDOP setup" my "virtual tnc
