Ahhhh – except that we don’t consider solar panels to be electronic, they are Electrical. All 2+ kW at my house, and all 110 MW (not mW, MEGA-W) on my system at work. Please note, the

Agreed. Other than photo-ops, when I operate in the sunlight (and this is West Texas and Southern New Mexico) I sit with my back to the sun, and the radio hung around my neck, hanging down on my

Sometimes that can't be helped like operating from a pontoon boat in the middle of a Minnesota lake or sitting at a picnic table in a park.? It just happens. Al

W4HGV, all rules have exceptions and there is at least one to the rule you state (which is a good one). And that is solar panels. 72/73 DR TIMOTHY-ALLEN ALBERTSON KD?OIA/(ex KG6IRH)

I may be old fashioned, but I've NEVER left any electronic device in direct sunlight any longer than absolutely essential. Any shade is essential.

Hi, Cristian You can get the part number from FT-817 technical manual and then contact Yaesu in the UK and order it if in stock. If not in stock, they will get it for you. I have done this in the

Where, in EU, is my best chance to find the ribbon cable that connects the head to the rf board? 73's de YO3IAZ

I have always been told QRP is anything under 10 watts.? Without really investigating, the newer MOSFETs have much lower on resistance and could just be able to deliver 6 watts without any change in

This maybe one of the reasons for the 818.? The PA part for the 5 Watts probably became obsolete and the replacement part just runs a bit more, not for an improvement.? It was what fit for the

#1 -They should have left the power alone. 5w is as good as 6w on the air, but 1w is not as good as 1/2watt when driving any transverter. #2 – I’ve heard a KX3 on 6m. I have neve heard a KX3

The 818 was not so much an upgrade as it is replacement for a model that replacement parts are or will not be available for in the near future.? Manufacturers are not "know it alls" as the uninformed

Apart from the inexplicable woeful 70cms image rejection and power socket battery drain issues, I can't see why the FT818nd is inferior to the venerable 817 Mike? I totally agree about the 6 watts

Pretty much I agree. The 818 was a huge nothing-burger. The TCXO-9 isn’t necessary unless you’re using micro-wave transverters. The 6-watt level is a 20% increase in battery drain for about a 1

Mine works great at 10 watts, with no heating IF the SWR is good. [email protected]> wrote:

Walt, This is typical of dirty contacts in the headphone jack.? Try inserting a headphone connector several times to help clean the contacts.? It may need a shot of electronic cleaner spray.? Using

The 818 is a waste of money.Besides the txco It has a slightly bigger battery capacity & 6 watts output instead of 5.Forget It.

Hi Everyone, Having been associated with other groups.io boards for quite some time, I am pleased that we've moved across at last. I found yahoo's implementation confusing. Thanks to Admin from

I agree with the reset. But I wouldn’t stop at the low if it didn’t fix it. I’d be willing to work my way up to the maximum reset. After all, it sounds like a trip to the repair facility

Hi You might want to try the low level reset to see if that helps. The one where you don't loose everything, it's in the manual. On another note I have had good luck using Yaesu repair and are

Hi Walt Welcome to the group. Yes, we cover the 818 as well, all models of this wonderful radio. Regards, Mark. Sent: 03 December 2019 01:47 To: [email protected] Subject: [ft817] Just came
