gday, what is the talk about 5 mhz on ft817, [not alaska freq], did somebody get the 5 mhz band?, cheers graham vk6ro

I am using this type of rechargable batteries for FT817 more than 2 years since I have got FT817. I believe many people do so. As a matter of fact, no one can insure the use of NiCD but it is very

That is all I received, too. Rick W6NZK canal1_pdx wrote:

I have been using NiMH batterries exclusively in my ft817. Seems to work fine. I charge them externaly when they go flat. Rick W6NZK Bill Mahaffey wrote:

Thanks much for your informative reply. I obviously didn't consider the effects of something going amiss. bill

Protection circuitry for battery packs usually is a thermal switch lodged between the elements such that if for any reason, the pack was to overheat (usually due to an overcurrent condition), it would

anyone around that repairs 817's cheap? I had to rake and scape to get the money for this radio a month ago, so the kitty is broke. Anyone?? > Jerry, As a last ditch effort, try taking off the covers

Tim, Condgrads on finding a short on one of those opened jumpers. This is a good heads up for anyone with missing bands etc. 73, Ken WB6MLC

Well, nobody offered any ideas to my post, so I'll ask is there anyone around that repairs 817's cheap? I had to rake and scape to get the money for this radio a month ago, so the kitty is broke.

At least in the USA, the FT-817 comes with zipcord with the rig power connector on one end, and an empty internal 8-AA tray. I've heard some say something about a wall-wart power supply, but i'm

strange you said that when i had a friend of mine open mine up for the mod change along time ago ... he said it had been soldiered before like it was modified and then put back like it was suppose to

Of course, that was my intention... no need to dedicate one of the HF bandsegments for 5 discrete channels, and better to center the channels right up with memories anyway. In fact, I'd done that, by

I didn't even receive a wall wart with mine, just a (~22g) zipcord with a DC plug on one end and bare wires on the other). I bought it from a reputable shop so I wouldn't expect anything to be

Ah yes..of course.... I had my mind focused on charging and not actually using.. Thanks, bill

A wall wart--not batteries of any kind come with it. Rudy Marcelletti, K8SWD

What type of power comes up with the ft817? AA, Nihm, or both. Jon kc0orr

Hi Bill... Most nicad packs have both a fuse and a thermal regulator that'll cut off the power if things get out of hand. The battery holder for the 817 doesn't... When you put alkalines in, their

The manual states that the FBA-28 battery holder was designed solely for alkaline batteries and that Ni-CD or other rechargeable cells must not be used due to the lack of protection circuitry. Forgive

Thanks to all who responded to my question. It turned out to be a rather simple but mysterious fix. The <KEYER> was checked and so would only transmit when doing CW by that means. No other mode would

My 857 was also bent just enough to miss the contact. Filter did not work. Inspection fixed it. canal1_pdx wrote:
