    Yaesu FTM-350 APRS Review

    You mentioned the TX of the APRS could happen on either band or a combination. Could I bother you in sharing how that can be done so I can hopefully understand how to undo what I think might be my current problem. :-) For some strange reason my APRS coming in on the left side of the radio and...

    Fantastic review, thanks for all your effort! My GPS module is on track for delivery tomorrow, so this was very helpful. 73 Bryant W7BDB

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review

    I purchased the Diamond CR320A which covers all three bands of the FTM-350. It runs around 90 bucks, but works great without having multiple holes in your rig.

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review

    Your reviews are certainly appreciated. The odd splits for specific emergency freqs is a great idea, I'll be programming those in all my opened equipment. Since my radio is already in the truck and not on the bench, I stuck a 3.5mm stereo cable between the 350 and line in on my vehicle. The...

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review

    Moleculo Tried the A B Swap and it didn't change the problem on the left side. I had also popped an email to Yaesu tech support and Ron Fortin shot me a quick reply and suggested a "reset all". It did the trick and all works perfect now. BTW I've always had real quick and accurate tech...

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review

    Moleculo, Thanks for the suggestion I'll give it a try when I head off to work. I swapped out the dual band for a tri-band antenna on yesterday in hopes it might make a difference, nope. This is a very nice site, since Aximsite went away and I sold my Ramcharger (ramchargercentral.com), I've...

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review

    SR385 the radio will allow you to mute the RX or TX of the VFO B (they call it Sub Band muting) or you can mute both RX/TX. Moleculo, I have a question for you. On VFO A I have a specific repeater programmed in and it sounds real scratchy (both on the control head and chassis speaker) If its...

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review

    Thanks for the expanded RX tip, I had tried in the G08 RX Coverage setting. No wonder it didn't work, now I had better run them back to the default. I found in the color setting the amber with brightness set at the lowest setting turns into a dark red, worked great for night driving with the...

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review

    Installed and impressed Moleculo, thanks for the GPS info. I have the VX-8 but when I was driving I just popped it on the dash so I never noticed how sensitive it is. Will pick up the GPS unit in the next day or two along with a tri-band antenna. I'm still having trouble finding the AM Air...

    Yaesu FTM-350 Review

    Thanks for a great review and mod information. I'm curious how sensitive the GPS on the back of the control head will be if its mounted on top of the steering column. My 7800 is mounted there now and the 350 is going in today. I haven't picked up the GPS yet. Hopefully RT Systems comes out...
