Hf+50 MHz power loss
Dear FT 847 owners,
after 20 + years of honest service few days ago my FT 847 started to loose output power on HF and 50/70 Mhz.

Re: No S meter reading

VFO knob is removed by turning radio upside down, look at shuffle jog,
there is a slot in it. Use small Allen Key, about 1.5mm or

Re: No audio in Yaesu MD-100A8X Microphone and yaesu md-100 A8X
Sounds like a cable problem.
Do you know someone with an MD100 who you can borrow their cable? At least lend them your cable and see if it’s working.
Need to think about this and try some

Re: No audio in Yaesu MD-100A8X Microphone and yaesu md-100 A8X
Hello Spence,
This is results of the continuity measurements.
I measured continuity between pins 7 and 8 at the bottom of the mic and it tested OK. so the mic itself is good.

Sorry forgot to ask if you have tried shouting into the mic in SSB.?
Also the shield/ground wire is between the mic element and the internal cabling. Replacing the external cable won’t solve this
