Hello Yono, I tried it here, and indeed, the 857 will not accept frequency change commands by CAT during transmit. I am pretty sure the CAT interface itself functions, as I use CAT command to switch

Dear all, While qso with a friend that uses a FT-857 thru a linear satellite, I noticed he always drifts upwards. He said GQRX was not updating the freq while TX and he has to release the PTT button

Thank you everyone. I learned a few things. I'll pass the info on to my Dad. 73, Mike / KA4CDN

There is now a 2M & 440MHz loop integrated into the model 100W 10-80M MagLoop. A most excellent choice for the 857 that also supports VHF UHF & HF. See - Loops & MagLoops (

Thank you I learned something

You should be able to program one of the screen menu buttons (Menu 065 - 067) or the mic buttons (068 - 070) as RF power set (Menu 075).? It would make it easy to quickly bring up that setting.

144 MHz: 20W 430 MHz: 10W with the brown wire. 73 Alfred - DJ0GM

I did that, but put the grounding wire on a switch Mick SA4MDN

Grounding the brown wire in the power connector would drop maximum output to 10W. Leonard K. Pennock AD7AS Those who walk bravely through life, unafraid of loss or failure, find that they very rarely

Hi. My Dad has a FT-857d and has recently installed an external amplifier which needs a drive level of around 20W. So we are looking for a convient? (fast) way to switch the rig from full power out

Eric, I must be losing my mind.... I've got this thread being started by VK2DHV (who according to the ACMA database is David). All good - Stay safe. Cameron

I guess I was just commenting that you can store any frequency in memory via CHIRP. If the radio is receive-only on non-ham frequencies, it will still store it but for receive only. If you do the

Eric, Zak et al (although I'm not sure who Stuart is)... ? This legal situation is actually much more onerous than it appears on the surface - hence why my response included specific reference to the

I don't understand how the plug that came with the FT857 and two others on cables I have purchased elsewhere can all have faults. As I mentioned, all these plugs fit just fine on the FT897D and the

Thanks everyone. There is no value in me doing this if I can't transmit and receive on those frequencies. I understood that in an "emergency" situation (which in reality is the only time I would do

Hi Zack, Agreed, however, Stewart was also mentioning about transmitting using the radio hence Compton’s, and my, comments about its none type approval here in Australia. One of the requirements for

Hi Stewart, Although you can program in any frequency to receive, you may not use the radio to transmit as it is not a type approved radio for transmitting outside the Amateur bands in Australia.

David, The specific answer to your question is YES however... I'd (strongly) suggest the 'legalities' can not be sorted as you are suggesting. Have a good read of the Radiocommunications Act in

Yes, but if he wants to listen to various frequencies without having to tune to them each time, the rig will accept any frequency in its range for receive only. I am never going to transmit on LF NDB
