As much as those radios cost me, as well as the brand name headset this is very disappointing. Peter - W5TXP *One's sense of honor is the only thing that does not grow old, and the last pleasure,

Thanks for the input everyone, it is much appreciated.? I like to have firsthand knowledge of products from people that have used them versus reviews on websites.? Not that the reviews aren't

W5TXP, Sorry to hear about your frustrations with the FT-60R. I won't comment on most of your email bc I've not experienced those difficulties myself. I have experienced a yaesu mic unplugging

My experience with FT60 is quite different. I have no issue to access a repeater on 2m and 70cm that is ~25miles from my place with the factory supplied antenna even from my sitting room. Again, no

First of all, where do I direct these problems at Yaesu? FT-60 frustrations: (I have two of them for NWS Skywarn use) The furnished short antenna has what local Hams call "negative gain". It is

Yes, thanks that is what I will do. However, I want to make sure it is not the radio. Down the road, I plan on getting a new FT-60, as this one is around 10 years old.. Until that day comes, I have a

Thank you Andrew, well I got a new Diamond SRH-77ca today and it is quite an improvement on receive when compared to the stock FT-60r antenna. Also hitting repeaters I could not key up before. Have

Gary, Can you put a full wave loop antenna of about 80inches of wire on a window facing the intended target? Coax feed on the side for vertical polarisation. Andrew Get Outlook for

Was this happening with your previous battery before you replaced it?

My FT-60 is about 10 years old. It was getting time to replace the battery again. I ordered a battery from Big Time Battery Electronics for around $20,00. (https://www.bigtimebattery.com/) I

Clint, terrain is a big problem. I am at a low elevation, there are a few repeaters on 2m/440m I can hit, but I come in scratchy. What I really need is something like a 5/8 mag-mount in my attic, but

Sounds good! Glory to God

If you are not making it at all with the stock antenna, chances are a 15-17” antenna won’t do it for you, either. Has NOTHING to do with the quality of the Yaesu FT-60R. Please describe the

G'day, I use a Comet SMA 24 and a counterpoise/tiger tail of 19 inch on my FT60. Very efficient radiator. Great radio. Andrew VK5CV Get Outlook for

Thank You Bob, very helpful. Got a feeling I am going to need a set up like you ham friend. SRH&&CA will be here tomorrow. I will try it out, if it doesn't work out I can just send it back to amazon
