Yaesu MH-59 RFI Fix
Description
This resource details a practical RFI fix for the Yaesu MH-59 microphone, specifically addressing interference encountered during Field Day 2004 operations. The modification involves installing a small toroid core onto the microphone's internal cable connector. The author, AE7Q, describes the process: purchasing a ½" outer diameter, ¼" inner diameter toroid core from a surplus store, opening the MH-59, unplugging the cable connector from the circuit board, looping the cable through the toroid, and then reassembling the microphone. This fix is intended for amateur radio operators experiencing RFI with their Yaesu MH-59 microphone, particularly in environments with strong RF fields like those found at Field Day events. The page also directs users to the AE7Q message board for questions and comments.
