Re: AH3 vs FC40
Ok Jan. Thanks for reply. Your system in the boat sounds Good. I have tried sometimes "resonating" counterpoises. At the moment there is only one for 20m. Some years ago I had wooden motorboat abt

Re: AH3 vs FC40
Rami, yes indeed you might need a good counterpoise system. The best starting point is at least 1 tuned (cut for 1/4 wave length) radial per frequency you want to use, and stretch them on the

Re: AH3 vs FC40
Thanks for your reply Jan. When I bought FC40 I believed that it is as the competitors. After three months testing I finally found some wire lengths which were quite good, but even founded lengths

Re: AH3 vs FC40
Well Rami, this is what I was complaining about. Apparently the tuning range (impedance matching range) of the FC40 is quite narrow as compared to other ATU's. I think it is only 15-600 Ohms Z.

AH3 vs FC40
Hi. It was week ago I had HAM weekend with my friend at cottage. My friend wanted to test his Icom rig in low level QRM QTH. So, I took my AH3 tuner (almost similar as FC40) to cottage for him. The

Re: Testing starts Again !
Hi Rami, I am also "forced" to use the FC40 and in reality I regret not having bought the SGC-230 instead... The FC40 seems to have only a limited impedance and reactance tuning range and therefore

Re: New FC-40 Owner questions
Hi Mark, It think it's mostly to get more money out of your pocket - as if gas prices aren't doing that already. I've never heard of any good reason. The same goes for the Icom AH-4 and their whip.

New FC-40 Owner questions
Does anyone have a FC-40 and 102-108 inch whip mounted in a RAV4? Anyone know if there is any reason to use the Yaesu YA-007 as opposed to a generic 102 to 108 inch whip? -- de k4ed aka Mark

Re: fc-40 and feeder?
ratio? Hi Colin, Yes, you can connect the FC-40 to your OCF with twin lead. However, I use 450 ladder line and have read that 300 sometimes is not the best because of the spacing between the leads

Re: Control Cable revisited
Hello Jurgen, Tnx fer taking the time to reply. I've decided to replace the CAT-5 cable I now use with 8 conductor rotor wire. I cut the cable that Yaesu gave me and will splice the wire in between.
