Hi,
switching the FL-110 via the ptt line is drawing quite some current. If I remember it right, it is arround 100 mA.
To check, just put a amperemeter in line and ground the contact. This may be a

Re: Clone FT817 to FT818
Joseph,
The OP isn't talking about upgrading from FT-817 to FT-818, he wants to clone memories and settings from one to the other.

Re: Clone FT817 to FT818

Re: Clone FT817 to FT818
There is also FT-817 Commander, I don't know if it works on the 818. Chirp should work though.

Re: Clone FT817 to FT818
I would suggest using Chirp. A direct clone may not be possible due to hardware changes. Chirp works very well with my 817ND, just follow the instructions in software.

Re: Clone FT817 to FT818
Note that RT Systems shows a different product to program the FT-817 than for the FT-818. On models that have identical systems, such as the Yaesu FT-897 and FT-837, they sell the same program, in the

Re: Clone FT817 to FT818
G’day Leicester,
Good question, wish I could give you an answer!
Perhaps the 817 and the 818 are just different enough that a clone from one to the other won’t work?
Maybe another approach like

Re: Power output instable
As a reminder, Yaesu shipped the FT-817, FT-817nd, and FT-818 with not only a battery pack, but also an antenna collection (2m, 6m, and 70cm) and shoulder strap. They obviously viewed this as a
