Chronicles technical discussions and operational queries related to various Yaesu amateur radio equipment, primarily from February 2004. Topics include troubleshooting the _FT-101E_ -100v circuit, questions about the FT-990, and inquiries regarding the _VX-7R_ service manual. Operators discuss issues like the FT-101's transmit problems, FT-1000D tuning knob behavior, and the FT-897's linear amplifier control. The archive also contains posts about specific components, such as the 2SC2652 RF power transistor, and requests for parts like FT-221R boards. Users share information on CAT interface cables for the FT-1000D and discuss features of handhelds like the VX-2R and VX-7R. This historical snapshot provides insights into common problems and user-driven solutions for Yaesu gear from that era. Several posts offer items for sale, including an FT-208R and an MD-1 desk microphone, alongside requests to buy specific transverters like the FTV-650B.

Adapting a Wouxun/Kenwood USB cable as a Yaesu FT-817 FT-857 FT-897 CAT connection

A Java multiplatform application used to find EEPROM locations for different radio settings. a very simple to use multi-platform Java application which can be used to find EEPROM locations for different transceiver settings. This information can then be used to send the right CAT commands to configure the radio remotely. Use this application on your own risk.

A 15-pin data switch, typically a rotary-knob type designed for DB-25 connectors, forms the basis for this microphone selector project. The resource details the conversion process, which involves replacing the original DB-25 connectors with **RJ-45** or **RJ-12** jacks to accommodate modern amateur radio microphones. It specifically addresses wiring for radios like the Icom IC-706 series (including the IC-7000 and IC-703) and Yaesu transceivers such as the FT-857, FT-897, FT-817, FT-7800, FT-7900, FT-8800, FT-8900, FTM-100, and FTM-400. The design ensures all microphone lines are switched straight through, with separate contacts for external speaker/headphone jacks, allowing simultaneous switching. The project emphasizes the practical application of switching between a headset for net control and a hand mic for rag-chewing without repeatedly plugging and unplugging cables. It highlights modifications to the original concept, such as eliminating a separate PTT jack by integrating PTT into headset cables and building the external speaker cable directly into the selector. The article provides guidance on managing the non-color-coded wiring often found in these data switches by soldering wires one by one from old to new connectors, ensuring correct pin alignment. This approach simplifies the conversion, making it accessible for hams seeking a functional and cost-effective mic switching solution.
