Is the PTT line cabled through to the Ameriton? If you are using RF sensing it may not be fast enough. I always cabled the PTT line through from accessory socket of the transceiver to the amp. If the

Put up the vertical dipole. Using the antenna analyzer I have an SWR of 1.5:1 over 5MHz. Using the HT as a baseline test I was able to access the repeater on low power without issues. Connecting to

I'd like to modify my previous comment, that was the antenna for the VHF/UHF line out of the radio. For the HF, I'm using a SuperAntenna MP1 (Superwhip tripod all band 80M),

Brian You mentioned the rig was Mars modded.? Was that done by the dealer (HRO, etc) or after the fact by someone else??? Reason I am asking is because on a few of those "how to" websites, its

Brian, You mentioned the radio had been opened for MARS/CAP. In that case the offset may not work, note of the frequency readout goes down 600 when in transmit. If not you will need to place the

Do you have the tone enabled?? If it is set, but not enabled, saying I think t-enc on the display, your not going to be transmitting it, thus you won't break the repeaters squelch.? Scroll on the

I don't work above HF too often. I hope to do more with it some day. Meanwhile here's some suggestions: Is the FT-857D installed in a vehicle? Wherever you have installed the radio, it might help to

There’s no reason the 857 can’t run an HF antenna. I’m running a 144/440MHz Comet-NCG SBB-1 with excellent results. Peter KK6YGH Sent: Thursday, 20 June, 2019 11:56 To: FT-857@...

I have read all the replies and have indeed started to build a 2M Vertical Dipole. So I ma not ruling out that it could be an antenna issue. However... If a HT can hit a repeater 22 miles away with 1W

Check your settings again, and be sure you see the repeater input frequency show up when transmitting and the tone function is turned on. Its a great radio. K3CLT Chuck Tobias

It seems like putting an HT antenna on FT857 is not a good idea! It's not surprising that you can't hot the repater. I have 5 watt HTs here and the ONLY repeater I can hit with them (from the 2nd

Brian, The 857-D is also the radio that I use for 2-meters, on the display of the 857 at the top left/center do you see the letters TEN? RC WH6FQE

Good morning everyone,? I've been trying to make a FT-857D play nice with an Ameritron ALS-500M mobile amplifier in my Dodge Journey for SSB phone contacts, mostly 40 meter net check-ins while I

Agreed and if you check the SWR of that antenna, it's probably VERY high when you try to transmit. Why? An HT antenna is designed around the fact that your hand holding the body of the radio becomes

Post a screenshot of your setup.

Also make sure the display shows TEN for tone enable. Mitch N4MF

"Try a real antenna" What constitutes a "real" antenna. Is not an antenna that works constitute "real"? I am sure that the antenna is part of the equation however, if the antenna works for a HT,

Brian, You stated that the tone was ON. When you are in Multi function row "e" you should see "TEN" displayed at the top of the screen. If not, press the A-TON key until the TEN is displayed. Hope

I would have to agree with the antenna sentiment. You are 20+ miles away and while the repeater is probably running 50 watts, possible more, your effective radiated power is close to nil as the

your Ht antenna is not a real antenna for the 857D. you are not providing the ground to make it work properly as the match on an Ht antenna is not a true 1/2 half wave or better. it is a 1/4 wave. you
