Re: FT-871ND ACC Pinout for MX-P50M Power Amplifier

 

Strike that Mark, all I've done is confirmed what you've said you're doing. Pin "8" is "TX Inhibit". I 'll leave this to folks that do know what they're talking about ...


Re: FT-871ND ACC Pinout for MX-P50M Power Amplifier

 

Hi Mark, that seems correct to me, but I'm going by the diagram at the bottom of page 113 of "The Pack-it Reference for the Yaesu FT-817".

FT-871ND ACC Pinout for MX-P50M Power Amplifier

 
Edited

The documentation for wiring the ACC plug from the MX-P50M power amplifier is sparse. I realize it should be simple with the black control wire going to the GND and the red control wire to the TX GND pins of the ACC.?
I'm looking for confirmation that I am using the correct pins on the 8-pin Mini DIN plug. Please excuse my crude ASCII diagram and numbering of the pins; the view is looking into the bottom of plug, i.e., at the exposed pins.?

I have black (GND) going to pin 4 and red (TX GND) going to pin 8. Is this correct?

Re: flrig with FT817

 

Mark,

I run Flrig 1.3.51.02 (alpha testing it), and have run all previous versions, with my FT817nd with no problems.? Early on when I first got my FT817nd, I found it "worked" at high baud rates, but was prone to CAT errors.? At 9600 baud, it's rock solid, so that's where I run it.? Set the radio CAT RATE menu (#14) to 9600, then set Flrig to 9600 and try that.

Here is a screen shot of the settings I use on my Linux Mint system:


My serial port is a USB/Serial adapter with a home-brew cable for the CAT interface.

Wincamp Battery Heat during receive

 
Edited

On a whim, I decided to monitor my local repeater yesterday while working from home.

I brought my FT-817ND into the 'office' and ran it off the internal Windcamp battery for most of the day in listen only mode.

Eventually the battery gave out and on picking the radio up, was surprised at the slight (but obvious) heat coming off the radio.

I thought perhaps it was the radio circuits, but today running it off an external Lithium battery instead, there is no such heat coming from the radio or the external battery.

Anything to be concerned about ?

Even the best run systems get an occasional SPAM leak.?? It happens.? DELETE, and move on.? We don’t need 50 people complaining about it, and 100 more agreeing.? Sometimes the reaction is worse than the SPAM itself.

If you want to take your chances with would-be android hacks, you can sometimes find older apk files by searching with apk as an additional keyword

Why are we seeing this? I only want to know about ft817 ft817 ND and ft818. Not some ad that I hope is spam and not from a member of this group.

FS: digital mode interface U5 Link

 

开云体育

Hello all,

I have come across a new, unused, U5 Link digital interface in my closet that is excess to my needs.

This unit attaches to your computer's USB (and/or soundcard?) and provides CAT rig control and an interface to the 6 pin data jack on the FT-817/818 Radio.

This includes all cables - USB, CAT, Data, and two audio lines, as well as the main unit, as shipped from China.

These units are currently being offered for $55-65 on eBay, shipped from China with delivery next month (August). I offer mine here for $45 shipped Con US upon receipt of payment.

Typical eBay listing for additional info (NOT my listing, no connection to seller):?

If interested, please contact me off-list at ken@...

Thanks,

Ken, N2VIP

No longer needed, I figured out I’m not as good at soldering as I thought I was. I had a solder short under a connector which was sending the wrong clock signal to the PLL board thus not allowing it to unlock. For future reference. On the PLL board, the BU4094BCF sources current as the outputs and the FQ7925 PLL chip on the pins labeled HF, 6m, vhf, uhf it draws current.?
