Re: Yaesu FT-718 power conditioner
Isn't the LM383 is a 7 watt audio amplifier? https://www.datasheetcatalog.com/info_redirect/datasheets/105/50173_DS.pdf.shtml Ken, N2VIP

Re: Yaesu FT-718 power conditioner
Mike, As a side note, if you ever again come across a situation where the LM317 will not support the current draw that you need, you may look at its big brother, the LM383. It has the same form, fit,

Re: 60dbm Neptune Amplifier + or -
Hi all, The 817/818 is a very reliable radio when it comes to external keying and one of you has confirmed the same behaviour when using a different radio. From the descriptions it sounds like RF

Re: Ft-817 power connector
Sure does help, Ken, I'll get an order out to ?west mountain soon! I picked up a second 817 for $100. It was beat up but I got it working. There is a problem with the power jack, it's busted, and

Re: Yaesu FT-718 power conditioner
Thanks, Steve for the info I take it a 1.8K resistor across the 817's power jack will fool the internal micorprocessor into thinking nothing is plugged in? The solution I was planning on using was

Re: Yaesu FT-718 power conditioner
Mike, that power conditioner looks great. Without knowing how you have designed the circuits in the device, I am wondering if you have also (intentionally or otherwise) solved the excessive power-off

Re: Ft-817 power connector
There is a problem with these connectors. I was using one and the connector got yanked while it was plugged in. It pulled the DC jack loose from the pc board. I had an awful time repairing it. Now the

Re: Yaesu FT-718 power conditioner
Mike, Thanks, your explanation answers my questions. Note: you seem to keep referring to the FT-817 as 718, which brings to mind a competitor's radio, the IC-718. Thanks, Ken, N2VIP

Re: Ft-817 power connector
Do you mean the FT817? Not 718? Sometimes you just have to spend the money. I would stay away from the Windcamp adaptors. For one thing, I bought one and the plug into the radio didn't fit properly

Hi, Ken, There is/will be a pigtail that runs from the conditioner to the radio. It simply was installed when these photos were taken. The active device is a low dropout adjustable regulator that

Re: Yaesu FT-718 power conditioner
Mike, Looks nice, but I've got a couple questions: I only see one external connection, how is this unit connected to the radio? A jumper that passes thru the lid? I suspect most FT-817/818 users power

Yaesu FT-718 power conditioner
Hey, gang... Things have been slow in the shack, so I've raised from the dead a project I started back in 2018. This is a power conditioner for the 718/818. Unlike Phil's design, I can't remember
