Re: Crossband repeat (...well operation)
Steve
Yes you say it, KT0DD had posted it, but it wsa subsequently deleted
by the reviews manager as it was not a review. It porbably should have been posted to the VHF/UHF and/or the Sat Forums. See the post here referencing page 28(?) of the instructions re: odd splits -- just save to a memory a 'very odd' split, across bands. That was the gist of Todd's message. 73 de Steve - KB1LKR --- In FT-60@..., Dan Morisseau <dpm3@m...> wrote: and could have sworn I saw some directions from a member describing howhe got his FT-60 to crossband repeat.

Crossband repeat
Crossband repeat generally implies that the handheld will receive a signal on one band and retransmit it on another band, and vica versa. This requires a transceiver that has independent receiver/transmitter combinations. I.e. can receive two different frequencies simultaneously, as well as being able to transmit on one and receive on another. The last Yaesu handheld that I remember that could do this was the FT-51R.

Storing different frequencies for Receive and Transmit, even between bands, can be done on most handhelds. '73 de Jim N2ZZ ----- Original Message -----

Yes, my mistake. The FT-60r certainly cannot act as a repeater. I misread

Re: Crossband repeat
Jim Gerke
Crossband repeat means that a signal being received on one frequency is simultaneously re-transmitted on another frequency. The FT-60 is not capable of doing that. It cannot receive while it is transmitting.

What is described on page 28 has nothing to do with crossband repeat. The proper term for the use you mentioned would be "crossband operation" since no "repeating" is involved. 73, Jim K5QL ke2qr@... wrote: Of course it does cross band repeat. It is in the manual on page 28 but |

Crossband repeat
I was nosing about the e-ham.com review section last night and
could have sworn I saw some directions from a member describing how he got his FT-60 to crossband repeat. I neglected to print out the material, but thought of doing so today. When I went back the message appeared to be gone. Was I hallucinating or was it expunged for a reason beyond my knowledge? Did anyone else see the message ... maybe it was posted elsewhere and I'm just confused as to its location. If someone has that information could they post it here or forward it to me directly?

You could also get a very old television the kind with the old dials
on them, and tune it to the upper UHF band. You are likely to hear cellular conversations on a piece of equipment that is fcc approved. --- In FT-60@..., PATRICK MASON <fcr222@y...> wrote: FRED,Government to make the privacy act law. Unfortunatley you are correct. If you build your "homebrew" and it can receive cellular, or any other transmissions protected by the Act. Yup we would be in violation. That is why it took many years for the digital scanners to become REALITY. Uniden had to prove the digital scanners did not violate theprivacy act. Patwhat you monitor to a third party. But are you telling me, that if I was an experimenter, and I built a homebrew radio that received cellular transmissions it is illegal!? I believe you, because I just read a portion of the Electronics Communications Privacy Act. dad said, "Fred, how would you like to build a crystal radio"?, and ¡.. So I guess if I don't that with my kids I better be very careful. I mean, if I wind the wrong number of turns on that toilet paper form, they may be visiting me upstate. It certainly sounds like something is wrong with that scenario. wireless privacy act to intercept (receive) any cellular transmissions analog or digital signals, period. It is also against the law to manufacturer equipment that is "easily modified" to do this as well. your radios to a third party. Certainly, you can't disclose to third parties, but I don't think anybody can stopyou from listening.Service.

I would note that the LA county law prohibing receivers from 1600 to 2500 kHz overlaps with the new FCC extention of the AM broadcast band to from 1600 to 1700 kHz (though possission of a factory equipped or equivalent aftermarket AM radio in a late model automobile isn't likely to get you into trouble I wouldn't think. Also odd is the limitation on 150-160 MHz, as this includes the 156.050 to to 161.925 MHz VHF marine radio band -- though I suppose the possision of an FCC marine VHF license would cover you is you had a marine radio in your position, much as an amateur or GMRS or other FCC license would. In general it appears they are trying to limit scanning of law enforcement frequencies. As for ME it appears they are not restricting 200-500m transmitters per se, just ones causing interference, so an unlicensed Part 15 transmitter should be legal if it didn't interfere with MF marine or AM broadcast stations. --- In FT-60@..., "g4hfq" <bob.freeth@d...> wrote:

Re: RT Systems FT-60 Software Opinions?
Clint Bradford
Just FYI, RTSystems posts UPDATES to their wares for registered users....RT Systems software...now may need some tinkering-with... The update procedure is painless! It has been my experience the past decade or so that many users have...Some users clearly dislike it... problems with the "basics" when it comes to programming software - like setting up the proper COM port and resolving conflicts. This frustration leads to unwarranted negative reviews... Yes - I have had "problems" with software. And if I can reach tech support in a reasonable amount of time and get answers, then I continue to support that company. Jim's Commander series and RTSystems ADMS series are programs and programmers that I wholeheartedly support, due to their contributions to the hobby, dedication, and support policies.

Re: RT Systems FT-60 Software Opinions?
For the record my ADMS software is working fine now, I can only conclude that I hit a wrong key the first time I tried to upload to the radio. I have done several subsequent uploads with no problems. By the way when I called tech support, they got back to me in less than 20 minutes.
