Dar friends,
I am using the FC40 with my 857 and 897 under several circumstances.
In mobile I tested the FC 40 with 1 3m whip against the ATAS 120. my
opinion is: Atas on 20-10m better, FC40 /whip combo on 40-80 better.

6m no chance of dx for a test.

my question: does anybody know a source for an additional extender
cable for the remote control line? I do not want to cut the original
cable.

Greetings from Munich

Hanno, DG8JZ

I am wondering the same information, I would like to buy an extension
cable and then , how long can the cale be? I plan on mounting the FC-
40 on my 60 foot tower and running a sloper wire.

Good Morning,
I have similar plan to do. Will buy such a spare cable and will try

to

expand it with some other cables. I do not want to cut the original

cable.

Will keep you informed as soon as I get the spare cable in Germany

from a

Mac source.

I am told that a MAC cable will not work as the connections do
not go 1-1, 2-2, 3-3 so test before you plug it into the radio.

This eight-pin "Mini-DIN" control cable appears to be similar to the Apple
Macintosh serial printer cable for their ImageWriter printer but, like most
bi-directional printer cables, one or two wires are crossed (pins 6 and 8
for the Apple) making it useless, as I discovered, for the FC-40. However,
a Mini-DIN-8 extension cable (such as the ten foot male to female
"Cablestogo.com" No. 09569) works very nicely, since the wires and pins are
straight through. This kind of extension cord is becoming hard to find as
printer cables are now USB. So far, I have extended the control cable to a
total of 60 feet with no loss in performance. Yaesu claims that the tuner
box is waterproof but I place a thick white plastic bag over it when I'm
home as an added precaution.


This info I got off Eham.net on FT 897.

I have checked the site and the cable is available at $8.99 for a 10ft
cable.............Roger

The original FT-897 CAT/Tuner control cable pins are 1-1, 2-2, etc
also the metal shield or metal ring on the connector has continuity
end to end.

Whow... thank you for the "bad" news just in time. Do you have your

original

cable still available? Can you check if the original cable is

straight? 1:1;

2:2 etc.

My cable... the short one... is installed.

Friends,
I did it! I bought a set of connectores Din 8 Mini male and

female, 15m /

~50 feet 8-wire and soldered the extension cable myself. Now

tested with the

original cable plus the extension....and it works perfect. So a

distance of

20 m / ~ 60 feet between FC40 and FT 897 is possible.
