Re: Windcamp WLB 817 - recharge with a charger for LIPO
It is some time since I used Lithium-Ion batteries professionally and I have no idea if Li-Po batteries are different. What I DO remember is you have to be VERY careful charging Li-Ion packs. They

Re: Windcamp WLB 817 - recharge with a charger for LIPO
I'm following this with interest because, although I don't have exactly the same question as posed above, I am looking for some way to charge the LiPo without using mains AC, i.e. from a 12v dc

Re: Windcamp WLB 817 - recharge with a charger for LIPO
Hello. The instructions I got with my kit said you could charge the battery with such a charger. However you had to set up the charger as non- balanced configuration. Being a avid RC Pilot, both

Re: Windcamp WLB 817 - recharge with a charger for LIPO

Re: Windcamp WLB 817 - recharge with a charger for LIPO
Can't say that I have charged it with anything other than the included charger, but I did email Eric Liu, the WindCamp guy, to ask about using a solar panel and controller. His answer, although not

Re: Windcamp WLB 817 - recharge with a charger for LIPO
I had no doubt about the original charger. In my go-kit I have the balanced charger for my 6000mAh LiPo. One like this:

Re: GPS lock the FT-817 for transverter
Hi Jim, What I've found so far is using a high quality ($$$) GPSDO is an effective solution for the hardware side of the equation. It ain't cheap. But I can't find the steps or 'change this resistor'

Re: 817, SCU-17 and WSJT-X
No processing. Thanks for the tips. I will try all of this. I have a feeling I might be overdriving the radio. Im using a random 35ft 6" wire with a 9:1 unun. Im trying to get this all set up before I

Re: 817, SCU-17 and WSJT-X
If you are metering RF POWER – you should see a couple of bars. It’s your radio and your $$$$, up to you how much power (heat) you’re willing to go. Transmit time and output power are

Re: Windcamp FT817 CAT/PTT/Phone adaptor
PS. If you read the discription in your linked ad, it states the Cat jack is for use on the FT-857 AND FT-897 ONLY. Not the FT-817. You will have to use a different interface to connect the 817 to

Hello, Yes I have and use one. It is nothing more than an adapter to allow you to use either a Dynamic mic or a electrolytic type. You set it up for the type of mic via a jumper inside. It either
