Re: Loud Squelch Tail
I haven't had a 857 for a few years and didn't use mine as a dual bander, but was thinking that maybe the squelch is set too light. Add a little more and see how that works. K3CLT Chuck Tobias

Re: Loud Squelch Tail
Sounds like you have it in RF gain mode. Are you sure you have menu 80 set for squelch?

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIf you can hear the repeater, you will hear a squelchtail, quite often, depends on the repeater. Your squelch control wont get rid of it. The squelchtail is as strong as the repeater signal.

Re: Not transmitting

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýWhen hooked to your antenna, how high is your swr? And, if you are on the dummy load, no, it probably wont hit the repeater.

SPACE OPQA
Hello everyone,
I reckon after a factory reset to release the TUN/CAT/LINEAR option that was stuck in TUN for some reason, my Squelch started acting strange in FM. In fact its acting like an signal attenuator, even before it engages SQL, and once engages (silencing the AF) the attenuation is bigger. I have seen this fix:? but I am really hoping I can troubleshoot it or fix it in another way. Messing with the hidden menu values indeed changes the SQL behaviour but with the lack of a signal generator I am not sure on how to fix it besides the hand held and dummy load method. Please advise. Kind regards, Luis, CT2FZI |

Not transmitting
I've been having a odd problem with my radio on and off for the last few years. It seems to happen when it gets cooler, even thought the radio is indoors. It will receive but not transmit. Once I reset my radio and download the channels it will work again. Sometimes for a few minutes sometimes for months. Some people have suggested a bad solder but I don't know.
Has anyone else had this happen? |

Re: Yaesu SCU-17 USB Interface Unit
¿ªÔÆÌåÓý
I got mine to work on Linux and Macosx a while back. As the background noise around my QTH is very high S9++, mostly used for FT8 & CW. PSK activity is very much lacking around here, AFAICT. Will have to look into MT63 and other digital modes. Was a bit fiddly to setup, but works fine =) 73, VK5FJ |

Re: Yaesu SCU-17 USB Interface Unit

Thanks Kelly and others for the info. ? I'll give it a try, I got one inexpensively and hope to add it to my kit as a backup to my existing Signalink. It sounds like it does the same tasks as a Signalink. ?? I use the Signalink for FLDIGI digial modes and Winlink. ? Stefano, ? I have two cables running from my Windows 10 PC....? 1. ?? The Signalink supplied USB cable from the PC USB 2.0 port to the Signalink USB port. ? ?? 2.????The other cable ( for rig control)? is my RT Systems FT-857 Programming cable from a PC USB 2.0 port to the radio's CAT/Tuner port. ?? I use FLDIGI and Winlink applications. ? 3.????A third Signalink supplied cable (ethernet at Signalink end and 4 pin round at the radio end ) plugs into the back of the Signalink and then to the radio's Data port.? I hope that helps. Dennis Yard N1TEN DM12kt
