A nice write up on Dayton, with a good mention of our little darling radio Thanks Pres Waterman W2PW c/o Patchogue Motors, Inc. Long Island Ford and Kia dealer GO BILLS!

Lack of NOAA weather is one of my sticking points as well on purchase. If some people have suggestions on where to start making a Rx down converter it be willing to try and report. If other people

in Yaesu, of all makers, had some sort of VHF to short-wave converter. I have one somewhere. I used it on a FT-767 to convert NOAA down to 22.475MHz on a remote base. Anyway, the idea of building a

Hey Everybody, I quickly found out that there never seems to be just the "right" case since we all want something a little bit different. What am I using, for the 817 I am using the pouch... just

I too would appreciate NWS capability on 162 MHz. However, from the Dayton buzz, I understand that this radio was designed for the Japanese market with no thought that it would ever be sold in the

I was in Keswick this afternoon and outside one of the outdoor gear shops there was a bin containing some small travelbags. One looked as if it would be just the right size for the FT-817 so I bought

I found a Pride 100 amplifer for $50 (GOOGLE search on "mobile linear"). "80-10M Amateur Amplifier" or some such legend is silkscreened on the front panel; nominal output is 100W (not sure exactly how

aid Julian - I have never used ANYTHING other than the internal SWR indicator - if it is one bar or less, I don't worry - if it is 2 bars - I try to get it better, but I don't worry if I can't improve

I didn't even know there was an official Yaesu case for the 817. But if there was, it would probably cost five times what I just paid. If I was going to pay serious money for a case I'd want one that

Hi Tony, I maybe wrong, but.. 1. The FT817 was originally only designed for Japan. I don't think they have NOAA Wx.? 2. NOAA Wx Tx's are North America only.? Best Rgds David

sounds like the same catch 22 works for gun laws..... only the bad guys have the big guns! Same here, only the bad guys have the Big Gun amps.... any truck stop can sell ya one boys! I will look for

I got the real case from a MFJ dealer in the flea market at Dayton for $19. It's very well made. Leather, with all the right holes.... I tried to get something from Western Case Co in CA but they

I never would trash this lovely little radio, but my initial reaction to working with it was incredulity that someone would design a perfect rig for backpacking in wilderness areas and leave out the

Using defective software? Thanks Pres Waterman W2PW c/o Patchogue Motors, Inc. Long Island Ford and Kia dealer GO BILLS!

Tom and group, Actually it's not that simple. Neither the TX nor RX current figures are constant. In many situations, the RX current actually is higher than the TX current. If you are listening to FM,

Paul and group , Sorry, but it's not that simple... but not hard either, just a little more math. First , you have to assume yr radio usage. A good fiq to start with is a 4:1 ratio of listening to
