Recently, at the Ballarat Hamfest, the author acquired an old Marine transceiver for just $10, charmed by its sturdy construction and waterproofing. Made by Findlay Communications in Sydney, this crystal-controlled transceiver had been dormant but was reinvigorated with minor fixes. A manual was sourced, and further repairs were made, including an ingenious crystal oscillator replacement using an Si5351a controlled by an Arduino. The refurbished radio, complete with a fresh coat of paint and added customizations, is now operational for 160m AM and 30m SSB. A successful and cost-effective restoration. -
This transmitter covers the 160, 80, 40 and 20 metre bands and provides both SSB and properly generated CW. The CW side of this transmitter is not compromised and produces excellent CW. On SSB the audio has been tailored to provide a rising response to 3 KHz, with a sharp drop above that frequency. There is RF speech clipping to both provide more "punch" and to limit the peak output. -

The FT101ZD DDS VFO project replaces the original VFO in the Yaesu FT101Z/ZD rigs with an AD9850 DDS module, providing enhanced frequency control. It uses the original optical encoder and clarifier for compatibility, with a custom 6V power supply modification. The project includes selectable step sizes, a frequency save function, and works with both RX and TX modes. The design involves mechanical and electronic modifications, including SMD components and a custom PIC processor. Calibration ensures accurate frequency output, with further improvements under consideration.
