Try using FT-60 Commander software, found at kc8unj.com. It is a great program and free. Use the Alternate write method.
Also, the FT-60 is absolutely the easiest radio to manually program.

I found this a helpful resource. Definitely would recommend it to new users as a supplement to the official manual.
Especially for visual learners. Thank you!

Crackly volume Pot
It's not intermittent yet, but I'm hearing some crackle as I adjust the
volume.
How can I get some DeOxit to the pot? Do I need to disassemble the radio?
Thanks

The 450KHz IF filter and a 47.25MHz filter do have DC on the inputs.

Morning all,
Fortunately, my FT60r is still going strong. A few years ago I replaced a ceramic filter in a Uniden UHF HT for my brother. The only through hole part on the board. The problem is called

Re: Yaesu replacing ceramic filters in 2 radios
I started purchasing FT-60R HTs since the moment they became available. And I own a "fleet" of six of them

Yaesu replacing ceramic filters in 2 radios
Greetings,
We have 2 FT-60R radios. A few months ago, the audio began sounding distorted. Sort of like when you have a weak battery and there's enough juice to get some audio out, but not clearly...

Faulty PTT switch?
My FT-60R, several light-duty years old, is terrific on all counts, except
one.
Either the PTT switch is intermittent or there's something wrong with my

Re: FT-60 audio a bit muffled just for m the radio no Speaker mic...
May be a thin piece of plastic flashing stuck in front of the mic. Ask the dealer to correct it or replace the unit. This would not be the first time this problem has occurred.

Hmm, not mine. Sounds good apparently.
Does it favor highs as much as the FT-70 I own? No, but it doesn¡¯t sound as thin as that on FM either.

Well, I an about ready to turn my FT-60 back in to the store because of the low & muffled audio from the front panel mike. Using a Yaesu speaker mike I sound just fine, like I do on my Icom T-70A on
