Re: Headset
I put the Heil HTHY on my Yaesu FT-60. The earpiece sound quality was very good. However the mic gain was low based on the signal reports I received. Since the FT-60 doesn't have a mic gain setting, I

Re: Looking for review of earpiece lapel mic SSM-518A
Try for a single headset with a noise cancelling boom mic attached, so you are speaking directly into the mic. That's my .02 worth. Yep, for example, HEIL HTH-Y

Looking for review of earpiece lapel mic SSM-518A
I'm looking for a new microphone for my FT 60 for use in the car and since I'm pretty deaf in one ear I thought this lapel mic earpiece might be a solution. Has anyone used it? What can you say about

Re: life expectancy of HT in general
Hi Jayne, I am no expert, but some chargers for Nicad and NiMh cells turn on the "charged light " - which may be green color, when the battery voltage exceeds a certain threshold. These chargers do

Re: life expectancy of HT in general
" Once it drops below 7.6V I can't transmit. This just seems rather odd, " I don't think that is normal.? Under load, you really can't expect 6x NiMH to maintain over 7V. My problem is that no matter

Re: life expectancy of HT in general
The reading when I turn the HT on straight off of the charger is 8.6V. I have it attached to a Signal Staff OSJ collapsible J pole. I use the standard FNB83 battery. I'm using the standard Yaesu drop

Re: life expectancy of HT in general
Sounds like bad batteries or a bad charger. When you first turn the radio on, what battery voltage do you read? I have 2 FT-60s. They both have been charged in the last few weeks, but not used since

Re: life expectancy of HT in general
Yes, what Clint said! He's an authority on the FT-60.? I only use Powerex Pro NiMH? AAcells in TWO FBA-25 alkaline cases, so there's always a fresh backup.? Much more economical than buying

Re: life expectancy of HT in general
I have owned several of these since the moment they were released 18 years ago. Each performs as if they were brand-new ... I mainly use 2700mAH AA NiMH cells in the FBA-25 alkaline case - and charge
FT60 Clone Cable CT27
Is there anything special about the clone cable for this radio? I have a 4 pole to 4 pole lead but the Tx radio shows "error" the Rx sits in "Rx" mode. All I need to do is clone one FT60 to another,

life expectancy of HT in general
I've done some searching in this forum (and a few other places) and come up empty, so I thought I'd ask. Does this HT have general life expectancy? The reason I'm suspicious of my 20+ year old unit is

Hi Dave, You need the 12v wall wart at least. I use the SBH-13 cradle. Needs 12v at 1amp! There may be FT60s that will only charge on the cradle. There is also a fast charge cradle. Andrew VK5CV Get
