Don, I think you're missing the point. I never said the reason the short whip antennas are not so good for /P was because they don't perform as well as a dipole. I can't usually be bothered to

I put my rig in the "SWR Meter" display mode but don't observe any indications. Would someone please tell me what I am supposed to be looking for. Thanks, John N8YQD

Hi Dan, every antenna coupler like the SGC 239 or others need the ground for proper function. 73s, Peter

not without an R.F. converter.--Bob

Thanks - I should have added - Is there a better antenna for "walk- about" operation? YES! Is it available off the shelf? NO! By the way - my MP1 and ATX don't work as well as my 2 element 40 Meter

Julian, My MP-1 tuned up fine on 6 through 40 meters, with just those 4 little bits of wire and my backpack frame for counterpoise. Radiated quite well -- I received plenty of good reports at 5

True, the efficiency of mine calculates to be around 35% at 14.1Mhz and of course various factors will reduce it to less than that. The thing you have to remember is that it was designed to be small,

According to my eBay currency calculator, 30 pounds sterling is equivalent to $US42.75. 73 Jim, VE3XJ

Anyone have ideas on a docking station to be released by Yaesu with amplifier? Dave _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at

A word of caution...my boys left an inverter turned on (with no appliance plugged into it) overnight. Turns out that the voltage tap in the back of my wife's Ford is hot even when the car is off.

Boy, you talk about a website that's screwed up.... Yahoo! I'm a member of the group and can't access it on their site... keeps telling me OPPS, you're not a member.... bull****! how am I getting

Thanks for the heads up on the Maha C777 Plus regarding 13.8 VDC power input and the limitations. Pres' workaround sounds......."workable" :-) I bought one at Dayton and have used it several times

Going back to the question of what antennas we use and why the work (or don't), which continues to be a hot topic here, I have ordered a copy of Les Moxon G6XN's book _HF Antennas for All Locations_

It's about 180mA. Perfect for two eight hour cycles or maybe even 10 hour cycles. After the charge there is an 18mA trickle. I'd say for something unintended it's a pretty good match Thanks Pres

Or you could get a cheap 12v-110vAC inverter and run the Maha from that. The inverters have been seen as cheap as $15! Considering the display features of the Maha I am quite pleased I ordered one at

Has anyone measured the charge current and terminal voltage of the internal charger yet? Sure, you can cut the green wire. Sure, you can buy 1600 maH cells (at Dayton) and fuse it and over temp

Does anyone know what kind of hardware or firmware updates Yaesu may have incorporated since introduction? No complaints with mine, but curious. 73 John

Hello Demetre. I also have this problem. My FT817 should arrive back from Yaesu today. I sent it to them for a Power output problem and Birdies on HF also. I'm writing up my experience. I will post

Just checked specs on new Maha C777 Plus. Be carefull if you plan on charging from car. Max voltage on pack to be charged is 7.2 volts from 13.8 source. Simpro makes a nice unit that charges up to
