Hi All....
Does anyone know of a 8 PIN round mic or a adapter combination that will give me up/dwn and PTT functionality on my Yaesu FT-2200. the adapters I have found can convert it to another mic but no up/down. Mic needs to be a electret and not a condenser mic, unless anyone knows a work...
Sorry...no I have not...got busy doing other stuff, but still very intrested...I may try in the next couple of weeks, and I will post what I find out...
I'm working with my Dad (also a ham) to create a remote base that we can share and have been building and erecting some homebrew antennas...
Did anyone fine out if there is an option to configure the 10 watt digipeater with the display and keyboard? I'm interested in this option as well..
Thanks!

Thanks for the reply...I will check this link out further and see what I can do with it. I do want to do digital modes and voice as well. I'm really surprised that there isn't a software out there that someone has created to remote base the the modern computer controlled transceivers...I use a...
Hello all....
Does anyone have any information or ideas on an existing software package that has the ability to control a remote base for a family based remote base to be utilized by my dad and myself. We want to use an FT857D as the radio and do not want to use skype for tx/rx audio. Any...
747 Drifting
I have had my 747 GX since 91.....My Dad gave it to me when he won it at a electronics/ham show.....Mine drifts about a max of 400Hz up the dial when it is warmed up...I don't seem to notice it on PSK 20 meters but I do on 80 Meters. This is the only issue with it that I know of...
I know that the VX8 has the Marine Freqs preinstalled from the factory....which was a surprise to me. I have the RT Solutions software and one of the tabs is for the marine band and each freq can be toggled on and off as desired. You can also assign it its own bank from 24 usable banks. The VX8...
Thank you all! I'm starting understand how some of the deeper functions work, with your help. I might get lucky and get my internal GPS unit installed tomorrow after UPS comes....Is anyone using the bluetooth or the voice module on the FTM350R, and how do you like them?
Another issue I am having is when I make an attempt to perform a manual Tx for APRS I get a Tx Error. I have tried it with Auto Beaconing on and off and it doesn't seem to make a difference. I have read through the APRS manual twice and see no reference to transmit errors for trouble shooting...
Okay that's what I thought at first by default I would get data from having the APRS functions on. I had the A12 in the upper right side, but I did not seem to get the data from the other radios in the area, so as an experiment I placed 144.39 into a memory and left the radio on 144.39 and boom...
I just want to saw I love this thread on the FTM 350R! It is a great way for me to learn more about this radio. I am a newbie to APRS and a radio made this century, so my knowledge of the more modern radio operation is limited. I have set up most of the basic APRS functions. I am receiving APRS...
The G model was a shocker and made me second guess my decision for a moment, but when I came to my senses I decided to get the DR....I also decided to get the FTM350R which has already arrived! I am happy with it so far, and feel with just a little tinkering that it is pretty easy to...
I just purchased this off of eBay and tried to get some information on the amp other than what I know, but there seems to be very little on it....Was it made by another manufacturer and MAHA distributed it with there nam on it for a while? If you have had one, how did you like it?
Thanks...
I had an order in for the VX 8DR but cancelled it. Universal's slow service ended up being a good thing. Seems like the wrong time to buy, with this new model coming out. It appears stripped down, but for me this may not be a bad thing, as long as the price is also much lower. I do know when I...
VX 8R or VX 8DR?
It's time for some new equipment. After taking a break from the hobby for a few years I am getting back into the hobby again and would like to take advantage of some of the new aspects of the more cutting edge radios like the VX 8R/DR. APRS and GPS features are something that...
Chop...or anyone...I didn't even know that there were Chinese ham radios until today...I think that this a great option for some.
The KG-UVD1P 136-174 420-520 MHz Dual Band P + USB cable is selling for $110 + 20 for shipping. Is that the one you got...looks like a decent unit for the price...
