SYMPTOMS: - Full output power (sometimes) on 80m only. - Reduced output power only at ca. 50% intermittently (sometimes) and on 80m only. - All other bands operate normally. Otherwise the transceiver

Thanks for your suggestions Bruce. I have both a DVM and an old analog Simpson 260 VM. I love analog meters. An O’scope is the one thing I don’t have but I do have access to one. I have use

And most inexpensive digital O’Scopes have a built in signal generator!!

#2 an inexpensive digital oscilloscope and learn how to use it. #1 a decent digital volt ohm meter. It is amazing what you can do with those two pieces of test equipment.

This is what I found in a Japanese 101ZD manual: I uploaded a much better version in the files section!! Erwin, PA3DAF

Thanks Tom, I have all of your recommended items. Appreciate the encouragement. ?How did you use your VNA?? I have one, never even figured about using it. I’m glad I asked a you

Hello Joseph, I have replaced the PB-1077B on my FT-277 with the later PB-1181. You may need to perform a realignment of the radio afterwards. I have placed a file into the Files section, of the

In my case I just got one a few weeks ago. It has physical taps for 110 & 117 but, when measured/rung out, it seems they are not connected internally. Thus, I'm using an auto transformer to get the

The real fear with the S model is that the power transformer’s primary is only wound for 100vac. There are a number of people stating that there are no other primary taps on the S version. That

Yes, the ZD & ZSD are basically the same radio except the PA section is a single bottle in the ZD. So the PA section is different. I have the ZD Service Manual but don't know if they even printed a

Hi Everyone, I am currently restoring a 1st generation ft-101 (actually a ft-277...) and while smoke-testing it I found that the RF board may need to be repaired or replaced; Therefore, I have two

https://www.qrzcq.com/pub/RADIO_MANUALS/YAESU/YAESU--FT-101ZD-Service-Manual.pdf is the service manual for the ft-101zd if that matches the zsd I don't know. maybe someone else can advise the

Thanks Bruce. The cap replacements should be here by the weekend. I’ll start with the replaceable cards first then tackle the two large caps after I take some more up close and personal pictures of

OK. Lots of stuff to look over. most of these in good condition look like new from the bottom! Old Electrolytic capacitors can be troublesome though. Sometimes the bias supply filter caps can be going

Bruce, Thank you for your reply. My answers below: USB/LSB/Tune: all three positions, no microphone, PTT to MOX only. Bias pot to minimum and that is the lowest reading I can get to. I have been
