At the moment I’m looking at a homemade twin lead based J pole antenna. At least some people claim it is much better than the rubber duckie. Any firsthand experience out there? I discovered

30 miles is pretty good Rick!

The "Memory Bank Recall" function works for me exactly as written in the manual. If you press and hold V/M in the manual's step 4, what you try to avoid in your step 4, you'll enter "Memory Bank

The procedure as written in the manual works for me. As long as you're in memory mode, the memory slot currently selected is the one that will be assigned to (another?) bank. Your step 1 shouldn't

The procedure as written in the manual works fine for me. Step 1 says, "Recall ... from a Memory Bank", which implies that you're in memory bank mode, with the target bank currently selected. Is

When I try to change transmit power levels as shown on page 15 of the user's guide, the display only shows LOW or nothing (which indicates HIGH). I am unable to get display to show MID. Anyone else

I have found that the Memory Bank Recall Function does not work exactly as described in my book. Here is what works for me: Memory Bank Recall 1. If necessary, press V/M to get into

I have found a few steps missing from what is in the book. This works for me. However, since it was trial and error, it is possible that some of it is unnecessary: Assigning Memory Entry (page

I'm having trouble making this function work. First of all, my user's guide is copyright 2013 and has a bar code number of EH017M209. Not sure where to look for the firmware number inside the

In the section labeled "Memory Bank Recall", step 2 it says to "Press and hold in the BAND key, then rotate the dial." It should say "Press and hold in the BAND key until BAND # or NO

Brian, I live at the southern border of Phoenix, south of South Mountain. At about 6 different frequencies I can clearly hear repeaters but can’t raise them. I get no acknowledgement tone when

Dave, The repeaters I was trying to reach were 76 miles away but not line of sight. Will have to see if the new antenna gets me there. 73, Rick KG7MQL Sent: Saturday, June 21,

Ron, It would be hard to find a simpler antenna. Can you point me to plans? Thanks, Rick KG7MQL Sent: Saturday, June 21, 2014 10:00 AM To: FT-60@... Subject: Re:

I am 30 miles from the Maricopa, AZ repeater. Made another contact today. It is line of sight. I can see their city lights at night. 73, Rick KG7MQL Sent: Saturday, June 21, 2014

It looks like the loss is around 0.3 dB worst case. Amphenol lists their SMA connector as good for at least 500 cycles. I know that it is easy to take apart the FT-60. Probably not that hard to

Ron, I’ve done my home work and tried to reach a few distant repeaters. No joy but I have hope for the yagi. 73, Rick KG7MQL Sent: Saturday, June 21, 2014 1:08 AM To:
