Re: Hoping for help with an FT-897 (very similar)

MH59 is a very hot mic. You need to turn down the mic gain settings. Also since you did a master reset you need to make sure that Menu 59 is set for rmt. My Mic Gain Settings with the MH59 Menu 5 AM

Re: Hoping for help with an FT-897 (very similar)
I'm using the MH-59 mic, I'll take a look at that as well. Is is maybe just coincidence that all of this happened after I performed a master reset on the radio?

Are you using the stock hand mic that came with the radio? MH-31?The one with the "TONE" switch on the back?I had a very similar problem a few months ago and I found a bad solder joint on one of the

I agree with Chuck¡­ clean mic connection, try a different mic Jack W4GRJ

Re: Hoping for help with an FT-897 (very similar)
The mic connection looks ok, no dirt or anything. Regrettably I don¡¯t have another mic to test with.

Re: Hoping for help with an FT-897 (very similar)
I would look at the mic connection. Try another mic. I think the radio has a modular connector and they get dirty sometimes. You can also call Yaesu. They use to have a support dept there who would
