Re: LDG Z817
Allan, the cable came with the tuner, at least mine did a month ago. Watch a YouTube video on setup. I press the tune button on the Z817 and the radio switches to packet, the relays rattle and the

Re: LDG Z817
I've gotten into the habit of long pressing the Z817 at every band change. Not sure how or if it matches automatically. Am I missing a key point in operation? Mike WA1MAD

Re: Internal battery FT-817ND
I've used it for carrying antenna wire, 7m or so for a fishing rod vertical antenna and a few meters of wire for a radial, spare fuses, and a pack of chewing gum for when my bottle(s) of water run out

Re: Internal battery FT-817ND
Just for reference, initial current limit is NOT the safe limit. It only specifies what the pack initially draws from a deep discharge. If the initial current limit is greater than 1/10th cell

Re: LDG Z817
Allan, I have the Z11 which is the predecessor to the Z817.? I had to add an accessory from W4RT called the One Touch Tune to allow me to key and tune from the radio. The tuner has a couple of

Re: Internal battery FT-817ND
These devices do destroy gel cells that have been discharged, but there's two ESSENTIAL conditions here that need to be understood as to why. 1 - A too deep discharge below about 10.5v without them

Re: LDG Z817
I have a z817 I use with my ft817. I have to use the tune button on the tuner to force tuning. It forces the rig to put out power and tune. No command from the rig. Works great? 73 Ron n9ee?

I have a Z817 tuner, I bought it 2nd hand, it came with the control cable but I do not believe it is the original cable. My FT-818 will not work with the tuner, it does not change mode and power and

Re: Internal battery FT-817ND
Making up a NiMH pack without the tray (file / sand a corner and solder) fits fine with any model of NIMH. Avoid ones claimed to be 2700 mAH or higher unless you know they are good. I've had to

Re: nothing special about a twinlead dipole
Yes, common on domestic VHF-FM radios, though they may have a 300 ohm input or a 75 balun. The only small innovation/variation on this (as with G5RV) is using a specific length of twin as a matching

Re: author of an article assigns all rights to the ARRL
That's a draconian theft of Intellectual property unless the Author still has all rights and the ARRL is simply getting non-exclusive publishing rights.

Re: Internal battery FT-817ND
In my view, the internal battery storage compartment is superior to the alternative, which is some kind of proprietary backpack style lipo. I find that the FT817/FT818 internal battery storage is

Re: Internal battery FT-817ND
Except that 13 volts is too low for cyclic use. The lower voltage is intended for standby use. At least another volt higher will get you a fuller charge.? Each manufacturer has their own max charging

Re: Internal battery FT-817ND
Hi Joe, I agree it was a failure. I wanted to use the space for 18650's, but it was a millimeter too small in each dimension. But Martin admin says he's printed a cell pack and got it working. I
