Hi Dean, ? The serial number should be on a label on the bottom of the radio, between the battery door and the rear heatsink. It will be in the format ?of a digit and then a letter and then 6 digits. The first digit indicated the last digit of the year of manufacture, the letter indicated the month of manufacture with C being January, the next two digits are the batch number and the last 4 digits are the actual number in the batch of that particular radio so, for instance, if your radio has a serial number of 2G051234 it would mean that it was build in 2002, in May, was batch number 05 and its individual serial in the batch was 1234. ? That is how the serial numbers on all later Yaesu radios work. Not sure whether they used the same system on earlier radios in 60’s, 70’ etc. ? 73….Eric VK2VE. ?

On Behalf Of Dean, N2TNN ? Rick, ? Thank you for the response and I will be on the phone Monday. I just pulled the old girl out of the case and pulled the battery pack out. Guess I have to do some testing and get her on the air for the NAQCC word challenge. ? This rig and a QRP+ if you remember are the start to my CW experience. Don't know what I would do with out them. Just like the old pup listening to the cw music and tail tapping her on the floor. ? BTW, how do you determine the FT-817 serial number? ? ? 72, Dean From:
[email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of VE1RNM <rickmoskovits@...> ? Hi Dean, an email or phone call to yaesu in Cerritos California and ask for the parts department. Then ask for the PA board for finals replacement in the FT 817, but you need to contact yaesu directly. With the ft818nd just being discontinued there should still be parts. Let us know how you make out. 72/73 Rick ? On Sat., Aug. 3, 2024, 7:25 p.m. Dean, N2TNN via , <N2tnn=[email protected]> wrote:
