Re: Need help diagnosing and fixing a Yaesu YC-500 frequency counter
Check the transistors emitter. since there is a capacitor. you shouldn't see much of a signal if any.? The bypass could be bad, and that could cause low gain and the output to be incorrect. 73. RB

Re: Need help diagnosing and fixing a Yaesu YC-500 frequency counter
Idon't think I have worked on TTL for 40 years. As I remember a low is less than maybe 1/2 ?Volt and a High is at least 3 1/2 volts. The circuit input should never go negative. Usually a shotkey? input would be used to square up the sine wave. If you can remove the "90 input and inject a clock? signal, that would show if it works, or even just take the input hi to vcc a few times. Those IC's? do go bad.? But I would look at the input signal not being right. I will look at what you have sent and reply again. TTYL, Randy? ?WB9QQA

Re: FT-818 and SCU-17
first success.... With the RIG File FT-847 it runns ...(a bit) But QRG changing, and PTT only - sound was no problem No Mode, Bandwith etc are working How I am able to write a new Rig File for? the FT-818 in XML ? Any example or instruction / to do ? |
Selling in the group
Selling is allowed in this group for ham radio equipment only, and at least one of the items for sale must be related to the purpose of the group. We require that anything being sold here have a price with it. So "make offer" or anything like that will not be an acceptable post here. Please indicate if shipping is included, otherwise leave it out. Also, please indicate the general location of the equipment for sale, so others will know if it’s within driving distance for them, and if you're willing to meet someone X miles away from that location. |

FT-107M Question
I have a recently acquired FT-107m that works amazingly well, except the power out on 80m is a bit low. All other bands are 100w or better (10m slightly less). All tested into a 50 ohm dummy load. My questions are:? What is the likely cause of this, and is there an adjustment for this? My experience is limited with SS gear, so I am not as up to snuff on it as I am with vacuum tube gear. I have the service manual.? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Marc-k7wxk |

Cosmetically, it is exceptionally good. It has one scratch that you can see if the light is just right. With paper work for $425. . Kenwood PS-430 Power Supply: I know it is not Yaesu, but it works great with the Yaesu FT-840 above. It is direct "Plug and Play" with the FT-840. The Kenwood PS-430 power supply provides 13.8 VDC at 20 Amps intermittent. Ripple voltage is less than 20 mV at 13.8 VDC and 15 A. Input is 120/220/240 VAC. This is a linear power supply, so no need to worry about noise from a switching supply. The rear panel has a hardwired Kenwood power cable (6 pin molex connector) to connect directly to the TS-120/130/140/430/440/450 and others. Actually it will work fine with any rig that uses the 6 pin molex plug, including Icom and Yaesu and others. There are also "plus" and "minus" terminal outputs (10 Amps max) on the back, useful for a VHf/UHF rig.

FT-818 CW tuning indicator
Hi vy nice in RIGS FT-857 / 897 the CW Tuning LED (goes to blue if QRG matches) I enjoi this really. This I am vy missing in FT-818 Now sometimes use the Wolfwave or a DIY Audio Filter - but then you have to parts to handle... Any forcast for an update from Yaesu ? |

This is the plug that is inserted in the DC power socket when the AC supply is to be used. I couldn't find anything online with reference to it.For things like this, I like to increase my chances of getting the information I need by posting in other relevant groups, too. These would seem to be other good places to join and post: /g/Amateur-repairs and maybe check mods.dk to see if a manual is available there that has the schematic for that. You can only download one document per day for free from there but sometimes it's the only place to find old manuals.
