Hi, When the problem first manifested itself the radio was powered by an internal 3S LIPO (from Windcamp) battery. When retested on the bench it was powered by an external 3S LIPO via the

Thanks Simon! After spending some quality time with the service manual I was able to trace Vol 2 (the signal I'm working with) to Pin 49 on J1008 on the main board, as well as a few other points that

Folks, something to keep in mind… when a PA is replaced, rarely does a tech check every band and mode, while we assume that this is done. I doubt it if anyone checks everything out. I suspect a

Hi Ken When testing it in the shack, I monitored the output signal on my ic706. When it was working ok, the signal was sounding good on all modes. but when the output power went straight to the max

Hello Andrew, Working OK on the rear aerial socket but taking off when using the front one suggests RF feedback into the mic' to me. I wonder if there is a poor ground connection on the front socket

How are you powering the FT-817? If via the DC power jack, do you have the snap-on toroid that Yaesu supplied for this problem in the power line? Vy73 - Mike - KD5KC. El Paso, Texas -

I recently had the final stage of my 817 replaced/upgraded to a new final and I was told the board installed is the same as the ND final. All looks good on all bands, except that on occasions, the

I have used my original Buddipole 4S2P pack and my newer A123 Systems 12V7 packs with various radios like an FT-857, an Elecraft KX3 with and without the 100W amp and with an Ellecraft KX2. These

Hi Andrew. I get about 3 hours out of 1 3S1P Buddi-pole pack. It varies some, but never less than 2 hours and never more than 4 hours. I typically run 5-watts, either SSB or CW. My particular

Thank you very much for the quick response Mike. As follow up questions what power are you using when tx (5 watts or less)? Also are you using the buddipole charger and if so which one? And

I have TWO of the 3S1P packs. In short - LOVE THEM! I chose the 3S pack because it is almost a PERFECT match for the FT-817. Here is why. Fresh off the charger a single cell is about 3.65v. A 3S

I sold my FT-817 long before buying a Budipole battery but have had excellent service from my now very old 4S2P pack. I also bought the $79 charger from Buddipole to go with it. If you are looking

I haven't used Buddypole packs, if I remember correct are A123 litium tech 3.3V nominal per cell so a 3s or 4s may be right (fully charged they are 3.65V). Lithium is not one tech and there are

Well... it depends on which battery chemistry you go with as to if you go with either a 3S1P or 4S1P. If you got with a LiPo battery, then you HAVE to go with a 3S1P (the voltage of a 4S1P

No, but I do have this one: http://www.revolutionimager.com/collections/products/products/additional-12v-battery-pack-9800mah

Has anyone used the buddipole battery packs with the FT817ND and, if so, which pack did you select and why? I'm looking at either the 3s1 or 4s1. Thanks Andrew - KD5CQ

Hi, all: Thanks for all the suggestions. Unfortunately, none of them have solved the problem. The PSU used is a good one (Alinco DM-330MV, and I've verified it's putting out the correct voltage and

IMHO for Yaseu has not admitted it after years of the old final board failing due to low battery voltage, yes the newer PA board, that is over 6 years since the change to newer PA board, is better and

I recently forgot that i had rechargeable batteries in my older Ft817 (non-ND) and the final eventually failed .. probably due the the batteries discharging way too low. A new final amp board fixed it
