FT-530 Display when off - clock/battery How to select

Tim Slattery All Messages By This Member #203 I'm hoping there are some old-timers hanging around here. I have an FT-530 I've had since 1998. I use it a lot, and have not had a total memory failure in decades, until recently. While changing the memory backup battery, something went wrong and it went to "factory reset". I have restored all the important stuff, but one thing I had was the OFF display showed the battery voltage. Now it shows the clock. I can't find anywhere in the manual or my cheatsheets how to get back to the battery voltage display. I do know how to get the secondary display to show battery voltage, and that is not what I'm looking for. I also know how to set it to have nothing display when off. Anybody know what I'm missing?

You might try posting in the Fox Tango and also the amateur-repairs groups also to get more eyeballs on your post and issue. The other Yaesu group is much larger, and so is the amateur-repairs group, though the latter is not specific to Yaesu radios. /g/Amateur-repairs (I searched and can't find a group specific to your model.) If you get an answer in one of the other groups, do please report back here so we have a record of what you did to get the results you wanted, so someone else can just do a search in our message archive and find the solution that worked.

I'll post any solution I get... --tks (KE6BJQ) Sunday, April 21, 2024, 10:25:05 AM, you wrote: toggle quoted message Show quoted text Tim . . .
