Hello Nigel.? I cannot help with your questions but I have recently been investigating my 'deaf' '101Z <see elsewhere on here> including examining as much of it as is accessible without 'removing'

Thanks for your feedback Michael.... Alistair GM4ENF

After my mains transformer burned out due to HV capacitor problems its now getting the full treatment to restore it, i managed to purchase a replacement transformer on ebay which is in good condition

Hi all, my FT-101 basic... was literally a barn/storage find ..... this year from an SK. I feel incumbent to restore it; which only requires its operational faculties as its in Immaculate

Good day to you Alistair, I don’t try to keep up with the availability of the FT-101ZD, but I have noticed by casual observation that there aren’t many for sale, worth buying or not. ?I expect

I have owned my FT101Z from new some 40 years ago and after a long time off the air I am back active on CW again.? I am very fond of the equipment (as I was wth my FRDX400 receiver before it - which

Thanks for the reference.? I found the board and the replaceable FET.? Could the bad FET cause completely silent reception and no transmit?? When reading up on the symptoms what I read is more like

Thanks so much for the suggestion.? Is there an easy way to test? the FET?? I will check it if I can, or just order a new one and see what happens.? Anything else I could easily check.? I thought

Yes. The older 101 radios used a lamp as a fuse from the antenna jack to the receiver stages. You still could just have a blown dual gate FET on the smaller board near the VFO. That FET is mounted in

No.? Is that the lamp next to the antenna connection? Does the lamp function as a fuse?? The lamp is not blown. Or...can you tell me where it is? Thanks, --Kenoli
