Thanks Fred.
That description makes sense. I've ordered a connector for the ACC1 facility and will link the appropriate pins etc.
The relevant pins are indeed described within the RSGB RadCom review, but I have no idea where the author of the review got the information from - I can't see this aspect depicted within the Technical Manual.
I might send an email to the UK reflector and see if it bears any fruit. I'm just curious as to where the info came form - there might be more to be had!? 8-)
I'll download some goodies from the files folder to see which mods to do on the rig. Roofing filter etc sounds like a smart move, but I'm not sure as yet how to do it or what bits I'll need to buy.
Thanks again and 73,
Phil

Re: [Yaesu-FT-980] FT-980 Used with a transverter - frequency display to suit VHF / UHF band
Phil,
It's been a while since I had my FTV-901R/FT-980 connected together, but I did a test with one of my '980s last night (w/o transverter). The V/U button doesn't have an effect, and the Operating Manual (which describes its function) seemingly bears this out. You must have a transverter connected to the radio and the appropriate lines on the ACC connector toggled before the button will change the display.
