Part number on the MAXON antenna you mention? Bill's is a *huge* site I could not locate the item described Dave

From: xtalradio@... Date: Sat, 11 Nov 2000 18:58:02 -0000 It seems Yaesu designed the FT-817 to be used for VHF/UHF transceive in the over-the-shoulder walking mode. Hence the BNC

OK, here's the deal: Unlike FM, SSB has no threshold where the signal "drops out"; you can add more and more gain to the receiver (or more and more antenna capture area) to bring up any signal that

It seems Yaesu designed the FT-817 to be used for VHF/UHF transceive in the over-the-shoulder walking mode. Hence the BNC on the face pointing upwards, compatible with VHF/UHF duckies. There is no

It sounds like an atennuator <sp?> performs similar to DSP, except not on quite the sophisticated digital level. My No-Code Tech mentality leads me to think that atennuator is related to the antenna

Don't be sorry, de John. This is an FT-817 group. The 817 is a low power radio. I like the info from the discussions about QRP. Helps me decide if I want to go in that direction, whatever. If you

Have I lost track somewhere I thought this was a 817 group everyone seems to be passing drolling msgs back & forth to each other rabbiting on about everything but.... or drifting off the track I

OK...now I'm gonna let my ignorance REALLY shine!!! Why would I want to "reduce" the strength of a signal? Seems counter-productive...is it possibly for overloading the front end or dampering

Well I did like my several FT-7's as 20 mobile rigs (more or less 20 pep) was enough to usually make the same qso's on SSB mobile as the 100 w rig. On CW 5 watts will be plenty. I am waiting for

Thanks for that. deffinately not what the brochure says but still a worthy report. regards steve (G0CPK)

Bonnie, you and I have conversed before on more than one occasion and I respect your opinion, but my statement about the Yaesu being more than 6db better than the SG-2020 is based on in-the-field

Texas Towers is advertising the 817 w/ a built-in attenuator. How does this differ from a built-in antenna tuner? John

OT, but only today I was thinking about a new mic for my Icom-706; I've learned that there are two versions of the Heil mic element - which one would be most suitable for field operations away from

Portable sets with a power output of 20, 50 or 100 watts are available now... the IC706MkIIg, FT100D or DX70TH. If one os worried about current consumption on receive, the DX70TH draws about 500ma on

Feeling at least partially responsible for this thread I feel that I should chime in. First of all, there IS a difference between having to QSO and wanting to QSO. Bonnie, you touched on this
