Hi Gang, I just found this reflector and thought I'd share a few interesting threads. I was one of the early Field Testers for the now infamous ELECRAFT K2 QRP kit (SN#00039) and am still a member

That's 'famous' not 'infamous'! As my dear ol' gray haired mum from Blackpool says, "Why can't the English teach their children how to speak?" :-) I want an FT-817 too, but it had better not have

Went to the ARRL New England Convention in Boxboro, MA yesterday. The people at the Yaesu booth had a prototype of the FT-817 with them. It was a nice looking small radio. I noticed the BNC jack on

Here is the reply I got from YAESU Japan when I enquired about purchasing direct form Japan. 73's Vic G7PYR

Gentlemen, just got this e-mail from YAESU UK (so I guess it is relevant to the rest of Europe), << Dear Mr Tuff, Thank you for your e-mail. I had received the reply from Japan

You Guys Crack Me Up! A nice new QRP rig and you want to crank up the Tx power! OK, OK I want the 'out of band Tx' for official use and I guess it will be quite easy as most 'rice boxes' have this

Well, I guess initially there will be a price premium because the rig will be new but it SHOULD be cheaper than the FT-100............ let's wait and see. 73's Vic G7PYR

Anybody got a glue of when Yaesu will introduce this rig in Europe ? Regards, Erik OZ1GIY

Does anyone have a list of mods for the FT-817 yet??? I am interested in out-of-band TX for MARS, CAP, CB, FRS, police/fire, etc. Thought I'd be the first to ask. Satirically yours, Paul

Paul: Well, then let me be the first to indignantly rant about how doing the mods are going to void your warrantee, destroy your radio, land you in jail and ruin your sex life. Modifying your

As for the USA I have received two email from Yaesu sales and Yaesu customer service. This is the note I received from amateur sales this week: --------------------------- Thank you for your e-mail.

Ok guys, my tongue was firmly planted in cheek on that last email. However, I'm sure someone will figure out how to get 7 watts out of it instead of 5. Big hootie power!!!! Also, I'm sure someone

Another use that a friend of mine will use this new radio for is a Microwave base reference frequency. Apparently, they take a very small (in power) precise signal and inject it into there homebrew

Hi Chuck (& the gang), If YAESU are sensible they will make the 817 menu driven to allow certain circuitry to be switched off i.e. display backlight, speaker audio, syllabic

Hi Paul, I think you may be jumping the gun a little here...... the rig hasn't even been released in Japan yet! What is the best price you've found on the FT-817? We think it should be

What is the best price you've found on the FT-817? How do you access the "hidden" menu? Does anyone know how to get the LCD to have a green background? How can I tell if my 817 has all the latest

Vic: Not necessarily. If they do this rig right, they're not only packing a lot into small radio, but also doing some considerable work to keep the power consumption low. After all, it doesn't make
