Howdy Amigos;
? I bought an FT-710 about a year ago when I got my General license.? It has worked great so far, and I am using it in my work to promote Amateur Radio in the SF Bay Area.? Recently it has started causing me problems, and I cant figure it out.
What happens is that I can hook it up just fine,? and run WSJT to access FT8.? It sees all the other stations, but when I go to transmit, the radio shuts itself off.? *click".? ?I have tried both using HRD for Cat Control, and having WSJT handle CAT itself, same problem.? Sometimes I can transmit enough to make a contact, others I have to keep turning the radio back on and trying to complete an exchange.
I backed out of FT8, and tried transmitting with the mike.? As soon as I speak, KAPOW.? Its a deader.??
I tried backing the power back to 50w, and it seems happier, but 75 croaked it again.
?
Any ideas what the problem is?? I was demoing the radio in front of a large group of new hams when it decided to start this, and it looked pretty bad.

Yaesu Crystal Filters:
I have a variety of crystal filters available
that fit Yaesu rigs.
All of these filters work 100% like they should,
and look great also.
.
The following filters are for the 8.2 MHz IF.
They fit the FT-1000 series, plus many, many others.
If you have a fairly modern Yaesu rig, they probably
fit, but check you manual.

Yaesu FT450 items for sale
I have a few extra items that came with a Yaesu FT450D I recently purchased.? Love the rig, just don't need these extras:
?
1. a set of side rails with handles for the FT450 series of radios. These are the rails that attach to the side of the radio using the mobile mounting bracket holes and provide handles in the front for carrying and protection.
I have no need for them as the radio is being used in my shack, not portable. They appear to have been 3D printed, but they could be commercially made. I am asking $16 shipped
2. The original box with inserts for a Yaesu FT450D which will also fit the FT450AT. Great shape, good way to store your FT450 or to send it in for updates or ship to a buyer. I will wrap it in heavy paper for shipping so it doesn't get any labels or marks on it.? I am asking $28 shipped.
3.I also have the original operators manual for the Yaesu FT450D. There are a few pencil notes in if that could be removed if wanted. These are only in a few places and don't look objectionable, and you might even find them useful.I am asking $11 shipped by media mail.
Feel free to make an offer on one or all also!? I can take paypal/check/MO/Cashapp.

FS: Yaesu FT890 parts radio
I have for sale a Yaesu FT890 HF radio that is a parts or fix up unit.? Case is in decent condition with some scratches on it.? It has no optional filters installed, and comes with the radio only, no mic or power cord.? Here are the issues with it:
?
1. Receives on FM mode ok, no receive on other modes-maybe a damaged ceramic SSB filter, as I am guessing that all modes but FM pass through it.? That is just a guess, though.? I could hear some FT8 stations when in FM mode so it is receiving there.
?
2. Putting out around 1 to 2 watts max.? The meter shows full output, but an external meter only shows a couple of watts.? I could hear its carrier on another receiver.
?
3. SWR meter shows a high SWR even though the antenna has a low SWR, might be related to #4
?
4. It has the internal antenna tuner installed but it doesn't seem to work.? Couldn't find a match after a minute or so.
?
The display is fine, all buttons seem to work fine, VFO dial spins freely.? It could have other issues I have not been able to find.? It is being sold as-is, not working correctly.? I am asking $175 shipped and can take paypal/check/MO.

FS FTDX-9000D (pair) loaded/ w SP-9000 speakers
Hi all,
I've decided to sell my beloved pair of 9000s.
I wanted to give the Yaesu owners first chance to purchase them.
#1 FTDX-9000D - pastel blue LEDs. 10/10 cosmetic and function.
????????????? Factory box. SP-9000 also 10/10 included. PEP Upgrade.
#2 FTDX-9000 (fully upgraded Contest, for all intents and purposes a full D) 10/10 cosmetic and function. PEP Upgrade.
????????????? Factory box has all the D options checked except internal TFT screen & 160 u-tune unit. I purchased and installed the 160 u-tune unit, works perfectly and all u-tune units are now there. Instead of the TFT, it has the extra meters and function
knobs where the TFT normally goes (just like the MP 400W model). Umber (amber) display. SP-9000 also 10/10 included. Since the Contest does not have an internal monitor, I am including a 12" Eyoyo external monitor (driven by the DMU-9000).
Included with each will be a Signalink USB data/digital sound card box configured for the 9000 ($100+ value).
Also available for sale is an OM-2000A+ set up and cabled for the 9000s (I have an auto-switch network to select whichever rig is on). 160m-6m, EU model with low drive (no attenuator like the USA model has).
Serious buyers contact me offlist at ab2e@.... Great chance to pick up a spare 9000, or upgrade to one, those of you who are on the 5000 list.
See my QRZ.com page for a picture of the complete station (right half of desk, OM Power amp sitting on black table to right of desk).
Willing to drive to meet. Really want to avoid shipping for obvious reasons. Will drive to meet a reasonable distance, or demo and pickup at my QTH in southern NJ (25 min due East of HRO Delaware, 10 min from Gloucester Co ARC Hamfest site in Mullica Hill).
Asking $5500 for each package,

G-2800 Slow Speed CCW problem
For reasons unknown. my G-2800 only rotates CCW at Slow Speed and has no speed control in that direction. It works normally in the CW direction. It has been up since 2018 (bought new) turning a 4 El Steppir (6-20M) beam w/o a problem. I am hoping the problem is in the controller and can be fixed w/o having to take down the? beam to get the rotator out. Does anyone have a chart of the voltages that come from the standard Yaesu G-2800DXA controller?
Thanks, Alan K9MBQ

I'm trying to figure out how to adjust the audio level when sending CW and monitoring my sending.? Any ideas out there?? I don't see anything relating to this in the Manual.

Today I picked up an ft - 690R II
Its complete rig but I'll have to buy some new batteries for it and a charger.?
I'd love to find a working amplifier for that model but nothing shows up on eBay.
I was able to put together an AC adapter for it and power it on it seems to be working okay but I haven't done any kind of calibration checks for it.?
If anyone has any experience with this model I appreciate any and all input.?

Hi, ?I have a yaesu ft-747gx that works great, but the frequency readout is off by about 7khz on AM and SSb. I recently replaced the détented tuning knob, which was frequency jumping, with an optical encoder. Radio works great and frequency jumping is gone. I believe the readout was off before I made the mod. Anyway, My question is, what part of a radios alignment procedure will bring the readout back to spec? ?Im guessing it’s the PLL alignment adjustment, but I’m not sure. ?There arent any dedicated groups for the ft-747gx/heath sb-1400 that exist, so I figured this is the next best place. ?Thanks in advance, John?

Inexpensive external S-Meter for certain Yaesu radios
I was looking for something else but saw this:
?
?
It's an external S-Meter for certain Yaesu radios for under $10 with free shipping. I can't vouch for the quality but even if the accuracy is off, it might be useful for a relative strength S-Meter.?
?
It only lists a few Yaesu radios but I would think any that have the same port that this plugs into might work with it, and if not, you're only out less than $10. You could sell it on your ARRL section swap site or take it with you to a hamfest if you're selling these.?
?
I've seen almost an identical S-Meter for these radios selling for many times more than this price, so I have to wonder if the vendor of that one bought these here?
?
I was hoping to find one for Icom radios or my 767 GX but I really don't need one for the 767, just my Icom 705, 7300, or 7100.?
?
Please--no China bashing. I'm not of Chinese descent, and don't like what's happening in the SE Asian area, but this isn't a group were we allow political discussions. CHina is capable of making some very high quality items for a moderate price, and some low quality items at a very low price, of course. I'm typing this on a Lenovo ThinkPad laptop, one of three that I have, and it's made as well as when IBM owned the ThinkPad trademark (before they sold the ThinkPad line to Lenovo). Since these are relatively inexpensive, I don't know if these are poorly made or not, but the price may be worth trying one if you have a radio that works with these.?
