Hello Chuck, i had exactly the same problem with my FT-100 (not D) only on UHF. The problem appeared after more then two years of happy use of the rig and i...
The May QST review of the FT897 is now available on the ARRL website. The principle RX performance numbers (BDR, IMD, intercept points) are significantly...
Hello, all! I just got my FT-100D and ATAS-120 installed on my truck. Being brand new to both, I went to 40 meters, owner's manual in hand, to see what I could...
Kim There is a menu setting that sets which bands the antenna is set to use. I dont have my docs in hand, but the choices are none, ATAS1, and ATAS2 (I...
Thank you, Howard, for pointing out I needed to specify the antenna in the rig's settings! And I thought I had read everything! I missed that one! The rig and...
I just traded for a 2002 Ford Taurus. I am moving my FT-100 into the new car, but I have not found an easy way through the firewall for 12vdc as yet. Has...

Gary, I had the same problem as you with my '97 Taurus. Ended up running the power lead from the battery to the driver's side door, then thru the rubber seal...

Was happy to hear that the FT897 review was up on the ARRL website, as I have been interested in this radio. After reading it, I dont think that I will be ...
Hello, i'd like to home-build an interface like ct 62 to use my Yaesu ft100d with my pc, does anyone have suggestions or links about it? Thank you! Riccardo...
I encountered the same challenge when I got my FT100. For me the solution was to mount a small terminal strip on the top of the wheel well behind the battery...
In a message dated 01/04/2003 17:05:58 Central Europe Daylight Time, ... but what about Ft100D vs FT857 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
From what i understand, the FT857 is basically the same rig as the 897, just in a different box. Would expect same receiver performance. 73s John NE0P ... ...
Thanks for the useful summary. More than two years ago I chose the FT-100D over the 706MIIG in part because of the superior overload numbers on the HF bands....
Hi John, I didn't understand the possitive spin the review put on the performance numbers either. In my eyes, basic RX performance is the biggest selling...
You folks seem to be pretty high on the FT 817. In fact I have seen a couple, or more of you post as to how well you like the 817's receiver. Funny how you...
... Thank you for your analysis, John. My ARRL membership has lapsed, and I was very curious about the 897. Part of the confusion can be explained by the fact...
You also notice that they didn't say anything about the NB in the FT897, as they did in the review of the FT100D. THat is one of the main reasons I bought a ...
Hi Howard, In the past, I have bought 2 diplexors and 1 triplexor for use on my FT-100's and my FT-847/897 and No one ever said anything about any problems...

I took one look inside the radio and figured it would be best if someone else did the work. I have done my share of repair, but on a rig that expensive, I...

Has anybody attempted to identify/record or have knowledge of any of the power on modes of the FT-100/FT-100D other than the "hidden functions" that are...
Thank you to all who responded to my post regarding comparisons between the ft-100D and the FT-857 and the FT-897. I received a lot of information and...
I am probably missing the obvious, but is there a way to reverse the paddle polarity on the 100d? I can do this on my 817 and Icom 718, but cannot find a...
