Re: case for yaesu ft 60
A number of the generic camera cases fit well. I have a nice vinyl case some sun glasses came in. Holds the antenna as well. A insulated lunch bag makes a good small "go" bag, FWIIW. /paul W3FIS

Re: Battery Charging issue
FWIIW, I have the charging cradle. I also have a light timer, set to come on for 15-20 minutes every 24 hours. The FT-60R sits in the cradle all the time. Thus, a "top off" trickle charge. If I use

Re: Battery Charging issue
Kevin is absolutely right. I've had batteries go bad and turn off the minute I tried to transmit. On low power, all was well. Buy the new batteries and your problems should be over. Be aware that

Re: Battery Charging issue
You need to re-break-in the batteries after a period of storage. I'm assuming all you have to charge them is the wall-wart charger. Run the battery packs down to 6.0 volts, then recharge. Repeat for

Re: Battery Charging issue
Even though the battery shows 8.4 volts, it could be bad. It also needs to produce the amps needed. ?Similar?to a car battery that goes bad, but still shows 12 volts. If a cell is bad, the battery

Battery Charging issue
I have two FT-60R's and they have not been used in about 6 months. I charged them up overnight and for some reason when I try to transmit on high the radio shuts off and turns back on. I can turn them

Re: case for yaesu ft 60
In the FILES area here is a picture of a Yaesu / Vertex LCC-150 that I took to my local shoe repair person and had "modded." It uses the radio's belt clip - Why change that? I mean, it's the strongest

Re: FT-60R worked great through Irene

Re: case for yaesu ft 60
The SC-47 Kenwood case (for the TH-D7A) is a good fit for the FT-60, including cutouts or indents for the important buttons like PTT. You can see the entire radio face. It's available in either black
