I changed the SO239 on my original FT-817 for an N socket. The 2-hole mounting Ns are a bit rare but available on Ebay in the UK. I haven't noticed any difference but I feel good about it. 73, John

Thanks to all. ?Much appreciated. You guys are really good! I thought I would offer up a little background as to why I asked the question in the first place. I have a few FT-818nd radios. It remains

Hi Mike: I cannot answer your question regarding the fst button; but, I too use my 817 mostly in cw mode; and, I often use the up and down buttons on the mic to run cw. I do this because I do not want

I use my FT-817 almost exclusively in CW mode, but I get irritated at having to have the microphone available in in order to change the "FST" status (10 hz vs 100 hz tuning resolution). So I want to

The relay draws 30 mA/hr and on full "QRO Operation" at 5 watts output the radio draws 2 A/hr when TX, markedly less on RX (250-450 mA/hr) per published Mfg specs. See:

Hi Paul, Yes, the relay is activated for the rear (SO239) socket and deactivated for the front (BNC) socket. From memory the current drain of the relay is in the region of 30 mA so this can

For 2m I usually use my FT817ND on the front mounted folding stand. With a Comet or Nagoya antenna with a right angle adapter into the front BNC connector.? HF usually only on the rear connector with

You're right - from the factory the radio is delivered with an antenna "kit" to operate on 6 meters, 2 meters, and 70 cm bands that attach to the BNC connector on the front panel. You can insert a

I was under the impression that the reason for the BNC front antenna port is because the radio was intended and designed for portable, over the shoulder, strap/case carrying. Thus the antenna,

Generally speaking, the BNC connectors are better impedance matched than the M-type (SO-239) connectors. And this may affect more on V/UHF frequencies. So the rear M-type connector is for the HF and

Paul, There is a difference, but it is a tiny difference, not really worth mentioning - depending on the antenna port you select a relay inside the radio will either be energized or not. It consumes a

Just make sure you change the location in the menu so the radio will know where to look for the connection. Robin Kidd W4IEN EM73vx w4ien@...

Does it matter which antenna port you use for VHF/UHF versus HF. In other words (assuming the proper connector) can you use the rear HF Connector for VHF?

Hi Tony, I’m not in the US nor do I have one of those amps however, I would suspect one of the relays on the 6m filter section as all the others seem to work OK. It could also be the circuitry

Is there anyone in the U.S. that knows and can work on the Neptune 50w external amp (manual band ) sold by 60dbm.com? I purchased one (used) almost a year ago and it does not put out any power on the

I am interested in the Digirig interface. I want to interface with N3FJP logger and Winlink Express using Windows 10. How do I go about that with the Digirig Mobile device and FT817? Emmett - WA5EWN

Yes, sorry about doing that. Good Google suggestion. Mike Davis WA1MAD

However why put Google at all? Just put this into your favourite search engine. ft817 power when off blowing finals
