- The VFO 'A' tuning knob on my FT920 VHF IF radio has, after a several month period of noticeable stiffness, finally locked up tight. I know this was a failure point on other FT models of the 90's and

- I had some time this morning and I needed something to do, so I went ahead and dismantled the 920. I immediately discovered that the VFO 'A' shaft (where the knob attaches) is actually part of the op

- These are the little PC board mounted "RF pin-type" connectors found inside Yaesu radios like the FT1000 series (and probably many more). I'm looking for a source of a small quantity (<5) of the male

- I'm still using a FT1000MP MKV as a primary HF radio and as a IF radio for 2, 222 & 432. Still works great for both purposes. I like having the extra power on HF and, if you pack it full of filters a

- I think I mentioned this to you before, but if not, be warned - LIMIT the use of Class A mode as much as possible. Class A mode cranks the bias so high the cooling can't keep up. I blew up a FTV-1000
