Re: Making 3D printed battery case for FT-60R
Andrew, how did you get yours repacked? Is there a service you used that you can share? I'm hesitant to open up a worn out pack.

Re: Smart search feature question
One should not depend upon ham radio on "backcountry" situations. Consider pirchasing/renting a satellite phone if you need comms.

Re: Smart search feature question
Remember, if you are looking for the transmit tone, you have to be monitoring the Input of the repeater, not the output.
You can also do a search for the repeater you are listening to and probably

Re: Smart search feature question
Smart Search (manual page 48) and Tone Search (manual page 24) are separate

Re: FT-60R Main Board
I noticed the rubber cover on the mic and power plugs is broken. Do you
