Re: APRS Beacon Text
Dan,
You might also post thin in the larger Fox Tango group to have more eyeballs on your question.

APRS Beacon Text
Daniel Velez
On the FTM500 when I'm in menu 84 setting the Beacon Status Tex and i select Text 1 and then "Freq & SQL & Shift" i am then presented a text input form that has 7 spaces, a colon, and more text input area. I have no idea what goes here and what the formatting is for.? I have searched high and low for this on the internet and in the manual and I just can't find an explanation of those strange spaces and the colon and additional spaces.?
Can someone advise? 73 de Dan |

Wide-banding the FTdx-10 & 7300
See?. Jumper JP6 gets shorted out & the radio reset to transmit/receive 25?-75 MHz. As it comes from the factory they will only xmt in ham bands. There is interest in using 40.68 for tnx & receive using FT8.
A wire or tool across JP6 avoids the soldering. 73 de Jack W2INF |

Re: FTdx-10 installation of USB driver
Here is the info I got from Yaesu: Jack: There is no W10 dell driver that Yaesu uses. See below for correct drivers. ? SCU-17 DRIVER LOCATION ON YAESU WEBSITE ? You will need to install the Silicone Labs SCU-17 drivers.? You will find he FTDX10 drivers and instructions on the FTDX10 FILES page at?.?? Click on Link: ? I've already programmed the 14 channels I plan to use so I'm not going to waste more time on the RT software. 73 de Jack W2INF

In case you don't get any answers here, try the Fox Tango group, and both of the FTdx-10 groups. What does the first text file say? Is there information on Yaesu's site where it gives directions for installation? I ask because it's easy to find on the Icom site for the Icom Silicon Labs USB driver. Since you don't have file extensions turned on in your file explorer, I can't tell what the other files are since the extensions are hidden. If it gives directions inside the first text file (the other one looks like a license agreement), then you're home free (almost). You should be able to open that file in Windows Notepad (or download Notepad++ as a great replacement for Notepad). For the Icom installation, you install the driver first, and only then connect the radio. That's likely how this one works, and I would not be surprised if it's not the same driver. I found this. It downloads a PDF with Yaesu's directions on installing the driver: Donald KX8K ---------------------------------------------------- Some ham radio groups you may be interested in: /g/ICOM /g/Ham-Antennas /g/HamRadioHelp /g/Baofeng /g/CHIRP |

FTdx-10 installation of USB driver
I received the RT Systems programming software, reset the radio & downloaded the driver files from Yaesu. Without help from someone who either knows how to install this I'm hitting PAUSE. My Dell is W10. I called their tech support so I will wait for a return call.. If anyone has gone through this, please let me know.
Attached are the USB driver files I downloaded as a screenshot. 73 de Jack W2INF |

Re: FTdx-10 no audio output
Tim at Yaesu emailed me to turn the squelch full clockwise & reset the radio. I did that & it appears to work. I've only programmed 52.525 FM into M-01 to see if I get any more hangups before spending time programming the other FM & USB channels I want to use. I'm also going to back it up to an SD card so I can recover without going thru the reset. 73 de Jack W2INF SE PA

Re: FTdx-10 no audio output
Tnx! I did all that & finally reset the radio & squelch. I was then able to program 52.525 FM into M-01. Surprisingly, after the reset the memory channels look like they are mostly already programmed with HF frequencies that I have so far been unable to erase using the manual instructions. On a club member's? advice I've ordered the RT software. As with most Japanese manuals, I don't find this to be easy to use. For example, there are at least 2 different ways to reset the squelch, one requiring a signal gen & the other just the [RF/SQUELCH] control. But one does not mention the other. The glossary is very incomplete also. I have vision problems so spending a lot of time reading it is not a good idea, nor are the videos on YouTube. 73 de Jack

Help in programming < 10 channels into memory in my FTdx-10
I've given up on programming this radio. The manual is difficult for me as I'm blind in one eye due to a detached retina & I was told that the cause was eye strain while wearing reading glasses. And the videos on this subject have not been helpful as they don't deal with this simple operation. Channels:
52.525 FM-N 52.48 FM-N 51.82 in/51.32 out 88.0 tone 53.03 in/52.03 out 131.8 tone 50.125 USB 50.225 USB 50.325 USB I'd greatly appreciate the help from someone experienced with this radio to contact me via my email & not on this list. Tnx! 73 de Jack W2INF |
