Re: Information Needed!
Hi A 817ND with first digit a 1 would be 2011 an original 817 with a 1 would be 2001. I have one of the latter. Marty kd8bj

Re: Information Needed!
The 1 indicates the fourth digit of the serial number, so 2001, 2011, or 2021 are the possibilities. The FT-817 was released about 2000. The FT-817nd was released in 2004. The FT-818 was released in

It's an FT817ND. Zack W9SZ

Re: Information Needed!
Either 2001 or 2011, if I read the magic decoder properly... The model number may help you narrow it down better, certain models were offered in certain years... Ken, N2VIP

Information Needed!
Hi all - Ive just bought a Yaesu FT817ND and I wanted to know how you can determine from the serial number how old it is?

QRPp CW from the FT-817
For anyone interested in winding the RF output right down to 1mW or less, I had a little go at this, today, and here's how I got on. Before starting, I first wrote down all the settings within the

Re: BNC Connector is Loose FT-818
Dan, 1) the flashing display, when all is otherwise well, indicates that the PLL is unlocked (either a PLL fault or an attempt to transmit out-of-band), but read on: 2) there is also a syndrome where

Re: BNC Connector is Loose FT-818
Well, I removed the front cover and tightened the connector with a blade of a screw driver. I was very careful not to disturb the flat flex cable during the process. I actually didn't see how to

Re: Yaesu FT-818ND Discontinued Manufacturing
All the major manufacturers, at various times, offered low Power versions of their high-power radios to appeal to foundation/entry level license holders. While they may be able to possess

Re: Yaesu FT-818ND Discontinued Manufacturing
I don't think that there was any specific intent to target the FT-817 at foundation or basic licence classes. It is certainly true that many countries have entry-level licence classes that are

Re: Yaesu FT-818ND Discontinued Manufacturing
I may be off here, but as I understand it, the FT-817 was originally designed for ¡°foundation¡± or ¡°basic¡± class licenses (non-FCC countries). I think these are all-mode all-band licenses that

Re: Yaesu FT-818ND Discontinued Manufacturing
My mileage is about the same as Demetre's, and I agree with Ken that the 705 and the 817 are both great radios.. I do wish the 705 was smaller. Though the weight is about the same, the volume of the

Re: Yaesu FT-818ND Discontinued Manufacturing
Hi Andy and all, Really you can't compare the IC-705 with the FT-817/818 because the YAESU Rig uses 22 year old technology. As for the IC-705 not being able to do this that and the other that you are

Re: MFJ-9219
Joseph, It sounds like you want what the LDG Z817 provides. It uses latching relays to tune so it doesn't require power once it finds the best tune. It reads band and frequency data from the radio and

Re: MFJ-9219
Joe, sounds like a fun experiment.? You may be more ambitious than me. I did make a settings chart with each band as a quick reference. I may need to make adjustments, depending on where I tune in

Re: Yaesu FT-818ND Discontinued Manufacturing
The FTdx101 is not direct sampling - it's a hybrid like the FTdx10. This was a lot of the reason why I bought my 101D rather than the IC7610 - direct sampling is not a great idea when done on a
