Early FT-101 problems
I have an early FT-101 SN below 25000. Problem is it has no 13.5 volts. It keeps blowing D7 and shorting D8. I have replaced them with IN4004's which seems to be what most people use. I have also

Re: New to me FT-101B
Dave, Everything that I have posted in this thread is how I finally got to this point. I believe the biggest thing was that I had some bad cap components that were changed out. During my initial

Today was a big day for the radio and I. I can NOW adjust to 50 milliamps idle driver current. THIS IS HUGE for me! And the radio will tune up on 80 (hot) 40, 20, 15, and 10A. The power out seems

Re: New to me FT-101B

Re: New to me FT-101B
I have everything back together and all is working....almost all working. Band 10D is deaf. It does not hear the internal 100 or 25KHz generated tone. I have not begun to perform an alignment as I am
