Re: Yaesu Ft-60 ???
Lorna, The model names FT-60 and FT-60R are used interchangeably. The FT-60E is the European version. Most accessories, including the speaker/mics, work on all models. 73, Jim K5JG [FT-60] wrote:

Re: Yaesu Ft-60 ???
I have used a few and the nicest one is literally the Yaesu handheld mic design for the FT 60. Ham City MH-34B4B

Re: Yaesu Ft-60 ???
The difference is on is for the United States and the other is for Europe. So if the speaker Mic works for one it will work for the other [FT-60]" <FT-60@...> wrote:

Yaesu Ft-60 ???
I'm really not interested in joining the group, but I do have one question that no one in my local radio club can answer for me and I'm not finding an answer online. I purchased a Yaesu FT-60 a year

Re: Charging the FT-60 with the desktop cradle
Maybe there is an 'extra charge' if this helps the battery last longer! Jardy Dawson WA7JRD Sent from the Death Star for Darth Vader's eyes only. Any other reception will be severely punished. ?

Re: Charging the FT-60 with the desktop cradle
It works perfectly, providing about 750 discharge/charge cycles for us. Even my Motorola drop-in chargers need to be inserted properly to charge ... It is a great value of a radio, and with this

Re: Charging the FT-60 with the desktop cradle
My charger has worked without a hitch, but it is not exactly a "drop-in" cradle like I'm used to. The battery/radio must be lined up on the tracks in the charger for all the contacts to mate, and

Re: Charging the FT-60 with the desktop cradle
The charging cradle is not very good. It will show charging for a brief time when it is in fact not seated well. Just have to figgle with it until it gets in the cradle well, and then doublecheck it a

Re: VX-3R versus FT-60R
My tray is tight but does close, and using Eneloops too. Hard to advise you what to do. If you can see where removing a little plastic would help, you may try that. 73, Roy - ka7lws

Re: VX-3R versus FT-60R
I have a hard time with the size of the NiMH AA batteries - they worked on my older FT60 and not the newer. There is a small difference in size. I liked the old design where with a simple modification

Re: Charging the FT-60 with the desktop cradle
I have had that issue in a couple of cases. 1. Did not get the radio in the slots properly lined up (its a tight fit). 2. Went through the motions of charging, but got no charge - unplugged the

Re: VX-3R versus FT-60R
From prior discussions on here, there are three levels of eneloops. If I recall correctly, the Pro level are too large to fit cleanly in the adapter. The other two should work OK. Very slight

Re: VX-3R versus FT-60R
The clips on my two FT-60s can be closed when using those batteries, but with a great deal of difficulty. However, I have to use a coin or the tip of a large flat blade screwdriver to get it open.

Yes. My post should have made clearer the relationship between Yaesu and Vertex prior to their acquisition by Moto.. 73, Jim K5JG

Jim, My apologies ¡­ your post did detail the history and the prior relationship with Yaesu and Vertex. It is of a historical nature, but so many elements are shared (as you noted) today. 73, Nolan
