User assignable antenna sockets


 

Hi all, I presume they mean you can program via menu if you want v-
uhf inputted from bnc, or h-v-uhf (all) or similair in rear SO239 ?
if so ideal but BEWARE if you use bnc with long hf whip antennas, ok
if you keep rig upright and out of wind but if you hold it at an
angle the stess factor on the center pin in the bnc socket will cause
it to widen and after a time you will find the contact becomes
intermittent. Im speaking from experience with what Id done to my 706
& 100 (putting adaptors onto the SO239 to convert to BNC). I was ok
because I renewed the adaptors ,but the FT817 bnc may need replacing
as it is fixed. Just a thought.
