Re: How to assemble a Collins filter + Board for FT-857 and save $$$!!!
The Collins catalog has two filters with the same specs as the 250 hz
filter, except the bandwidth is 200 hz. They may be easier to find. But
is that too tight a bandwidth?

Re: How to assemble a Collins filter + Board for FT-857 and save $$$!!!
I have the 300Hz filter and the 2.3KHz SSB filter in the FT-857. I use this rig for POTA activity. I have a 500Hz filter in the FT-818 and FT-817.
I'm a big fan of CW. This is my primary mode.

Re: Substitute mike
I had same issue. Bought new one from eBay, fits fine and works but people say the audio is pretty rubbish. Not sure how to get an original Yaesu one which would probably be better.

I have inherited a FT-857D.
I have not messed with any radios for several years now, and I am wondering are there any special considerations with getting this radio powered up and running?

I have the FT-857D stored away awhile. Like to start using it

Re: How to assemble a Collins filter + Board for FT-857 and save $$$!!!
Thanks. One way or another I will find one. Which filter did you use on
your FT-857? I don' t do CW but I might find it useful if I decide to
learn. I did build a bluetooth keyer with an Arduino
