FT-101ZD Tubes


 

Just a note to ask if anyone is using 12 volt versions of the 6146B tubes in the "ZD"??? The 8298As have served well but getting pretty weak.

I guess you guys know this, but I was told the 101 output tubes are the sweep tubes used in the old tube TVs. ?I suspect it was a smart move as Yaesu probably figured these tubes would be around for a while.

Thankyou Jacques.? 6883B is a far better price and not much re-wiring to do under the final box.? Now if I can find a source for the relay; several places the relays are listed but no stock.? I will keep trying. Nice transceiver, I had never had my hands on one until this one came in for repair. 73

I will check into the tubes, Jacques, thank you.? If the relay has to be changed, rewiring the socket will be much easier to do than with the older 101s.. finding a socket that will fit the opening in the chassis might be a problem though. Good to hear from you Jacques.? 73.
