True. I have a few Collins filters left and cherish them (they are very good) but way overpriced in today's scarcity. They tend to migrate to every "new old" 455k IF analog radio here.. A pity option

On another topic, the internal NiMH pack is actually not enough cells (8) to fully utilise the radio and the cell state. I made my own 2500mAh to replace the 1800 mAh supplied. I've verified a 9th

I considered that. I can't imagine buying the filters at current prices. I had a CW filter on my FT101ZD MkIII I passed on to a friend recently. I hadn't thought of the shortcut. I usually have A=IPO

Quite an operation :) If you don't have the optional filter installed, maybe use the filter switch lines as voltages for USB/LSB? You can hold the C button as a shortcut to the Opt Filter switch menu

Silly me. Of course CWR or CW doesn't allow voice modulation, so using SSB mode vs CW mode for switching USB/LSB only works for receive. TX working on SSB in USB in USB or LSB mode. RX is USB in USB

This always amused me - TenTec had a great reputation, then a 'new guy' took over, raised the hourly service rate to be commensurate with what they got doing government work, and instantly the Ham

TenTec was a great company.? Radios you could work on yourself, and support from the factory.

I wonder if this was named after Jay Gooch W9YRV? (now a Silent Key.) Probably not, but I still wonder. Jay and I were friends for most of my life. He invented the hairpin match for Yagi beams. He

Well, I am enjoying listening to you two talk. What fun you had back a few years ago. Thanks! (David Wilcox knows me quite well.. ;-O ) 73 Guy <Djwilcox01@...> wrote:

?William, Read your article about the setback antenna and forwarded the article to my QRP group. Great fun you had. Read your QRZ info too. I think some of the greatest fun I ever had was mobile

Hey Mike, I like your term “Wireless Experimenter”. I think that works for those of us who “tinker” and “play” radio with little antennas and low power. Thanks! And your thoughts about

Has anyone figured a way to activate the callsign CW ident function in any other mode rather than ARTS? In microwave land this is a great function to use for dish alignment. FT817. VK2TRF

Dave -- Thanks, great to hear from you!? Many years ago I was experimenting with my FT-817 sitting on the coffee table inside the house with a portable antenna I had made: a small, center loaded whip

No, that won't g'tee a contact. Anyway, unless you are at the stamp collecting end of the hobby (and valid fun for many), it's not just about contacts, especially not about 1kW on beams. Besides, many

William, One of my patients in my medical practice was Rod Newkirk’s sister or niece I think. She told some believable tales about him and his radio hobby. Can’t remember the details because that

Dave (K8WPE) and Mike (EI9FEB), I admire your "Ham spirit" and agree with you!? As a QRPer who frequently operates portable and pedestrian mobile I often rely on Gooch's Paradox. There are many

Military rigs have used 8′ whips for at least 70 or maybe 80 years down to 1.6 MHz. They simply added series inductance and the best was a drum where it wound onto a spindle (Racal in 1970s?). I've
