Enjoy the FT857. Bob is a great guy and he is the local guy for ham radios. I checked out his used FT857s the other one I don't think has been out of the box. Good luck and enjoy. J.D. KE4MD -- J.D.

Ok, I am feeling incredibly dense right now and strongly suspect (and hope) this is not as difficult as I am making it. A little background - which I am sure is adding to my confusion. Primary rig is

Rg8x or that cable that James uses.

OK, I do have one that I have repaired but I must have missed the AM on receive. Everything else works but I just haven't gone back in to fix that.

Sorry I didn't see you were trying to go lighter. Rg174 is 3.3db/100ft so pretty lossy. -- Leonard K. Pennock (AD7AS)

Want to buy FT857D working or not working. 73’s Jack W4GRJ

Thanks for the reply Eric. I don't plan to use the 80 meter band mobile. I have the manual switch if I need to use that and I really don't plan to tune driving down the road, but rather more of a

Hi JD, In order to control the Tarheel from the A%&, you would need to monitor the DC voltage on the antenna connection to the antenna. The Yaesu rigs pout out 12V to extend the antenna, i.e. go lower

Skip, I wanted to ask you a question about the ATAS system. I happen to have a Tarheel screwdriver antenna and I have looked at the ATAS control board and I am looking into adapting the circuit to

Welcome Malcolm.? ?Enjoy your toy.? If you are going to use the ATAS motorized antenna, suggest looking at my QST article January 2010 page 46.73 Skip? W1FTE
