Re: Power connector for Z11?
I'm not sure what the spec is on that connecter, LDG supplies one with the
Z11. However, unlike the one on the FT-817, it seems to be a very common

Re: CAT-Interface circuit plan wanted!
Page 70 of the US manual states that level conversion is accomplished
in the CT-62 cable. Level converters ARE needed, and you either have
to buy the CT-62 cable or build your own.

Re: Power connector for Z11?
Doug,
According to my Z-11 Manual, the power connector is a 5.5 X 2.5 mm coaxial
connector. I got mine at Radio Shack, but don't have access to the RS part
number.
Hope this

Re: CAT-Interface circuit plan wanted!
The US manual does indeed say that level converters are not needed. I
suspect that Yaesu is finally catching up with current state of the art,
albeit about 10 years slow. In most applications, it's

Re: CAT-Interface circuit plan wanted!
Careful, as I understand it the level converter is not in the FT-817 but is
built into the CT-62 cable from Yaesu. If you just make your own cable you
won't have the required level conversion. For

is the cable rig to serial. I am having trouble locating

Did anyone yet built his own CAT Interface for the FT-817?
A circuit plan for this Interface would be appreciated!

Beware putting battery packs in parallel! Not a good idea.
