Occasionally when I push the PTT on the microphone (Heil Mic - do not get the original mic with the rig) the display on the 736 shuts off and the rig is essentially dead. None of the controls seem to have any effect, no 'beeps' are generated when the buttons are pressed, etc. I have to turn the radio off and then back on. The radio has operated for relatively long periods of time without a problem, and in some cases it even seems frequency/memory dependant. I have my local 2m repeater programmed in to memory 1 (145.29 -) and another repeater programmed in to memory 2 (146.625 -) and at one point every time I pressed the PTT when memory 1 was selected it happened, but if I went to memory 2 there was no problem, but as soon as I went back to memory 1 it did it again. I have also had it happen using 440 FM in VFO mode (not using a memory channel). Has anyone ever heard of or experienced anything like this? I have read on the Kenwood reflector of a problem experienced with some of those where the display would act up or disappear, and that was due to a poor contact in the display cabling - so I plan to check/clean all of the cable connectors. Please reply via e-mail to w2rds@arrl.net as I am not subscribed to this reflector. Thanks in advance to any who reply.

I found that RF was getting into the CPU and resetting it. I ended up rewiring the ground connection to the negative post inside my power supply. Not sure this cure will cure yours too, but worth a check. Does the radio have the same problem when connected to a dummy load? Good luck.

I just heard Santa has budgeted a new radio for me....but I'm not sure what I want. Yaesu users, can you tell me the pro's and con's of the MkV? I have not used one myself, and the testimonials I've heard include everything between the most awesome radio and the most miserable piece of electronics on the earth....I'm going to test drive one before I buy, but I'd like comments from as many users as possible. I have used the 1000D and 1000MP quite a bit, but not this latest one in the 1000-series. Especially, I'm interested in the following: - how well does the radio withstand strong signals? Is it ok for multi-op contesting? - do I need to buy all the optional filters to make it work ok? I'm kinda suspicious about the dsp, I think the dsp does not work well if the first IF's don't have decent filters. - if there is a strong, say S9 +20 signal, and a weaker, say S4 signal, just a couple of kHz apart, is the radio capable of hearing that weak one or does the strong one block it due to the dsp not being able to handle even this 50dB difference in close frequencies? - sensitivity generally, is it ok? - has Yaesu fixed the CW-click problem what MP typically had? - how about the TX signal purity? Lot of phase noise? Again, is it ok for multi-op contesting....? - does the power supply have a wide input range, i.e. 110-240 or do I need two supplies if I need to use the radio on both voltages? - how about ergonomics, better or worse compared to MP? Is the display any better than MP's? - any reliability problems? Good or poor craftmanship? etc. Tell me guys, I want to know everything possible. IC-756 Pro2 would be another choice, but somehow I have always liked Yaesu better. 73!

References: <3C137676.5992.2A1578E4@localhost> Message-ID: <3C138FEB.8B4CF978@verizon.net> Hello Bob: There is a set of relay contacts on RL7218 within the LPF Assembly, which is easily accessible with the top cover removed and is located central on the top chassis, behind a rectangular compartment shield. There is a factory modification that is described as "Preventing RX ANT Relay Failure" (RL7218) that includes the following: " When attempting to match a very short antenna or an antenna with a very short feedline (approx 1-meter), induced transmitting RF can cause the receiving antenna relay to malfunction. Modify the LPF Unit as follows. Refer to the drawings on the next page. " Basically this mod changes transistor Q7203 to a type BN1A4M along with changing of other components. As I recall, there was a jumper visible at the underside of the PCB assembly. Regretfully, I do not have a scanner available and cannot forward the details. Good luck, and I hope you are able to determine the cause and implement the proper solution. 73s, and Have Fun, de ~ Vince ~ WA2RSX - IOTA NA-026 Bob Harrison wrote: > Hi, > > I have just switch my 1000D on for the first time since CQWW > SSB.

The question: How far apart . . in frequency . . would I need to keep two signals if I were trying to operate to stations? One would be about 100 watts and the other about 25 watts. How far apart . . minimum . . would I need to have the antennas?? Is the potential for disaster so great that it would just be better not to try?

That reflector can be signed up by going to http://www.qth.net/ and on the left choose the 1000mp selection and fill in your email address and subscribe.This reflector includes the MkV and MP versions. In the mean time I have posted the information below. 73 from Bill - WD8ARZ wd8arz@ix.netcom.com (partial copy) By turning the transmit monitor on (MONI button), monitor volume to minimum (counter clockwise to avoid feedback in the listen speakers), I have found that by recording from the AF Out audio output jack on the rear of the FT-1000MP (not speaker out jack), you can record in stereo or mono and have transmitted audio and CW side tone output as part of the audio from the sub receiver to a hard drive file or tape recorder. Even if the receiver is muted, transmitted audio is still part of the output on this jack. Changing the receiver volume, or moni volume doesn't change the output at this jack. Make sure you are using a 'stereo' plug on the rear AF Out audio output jack. The sub receiver is used by the moni function, and the audio from the sub receiver is also available on the 'stereo' plug on the rear AF Out audio output jack. It also doesn't matter if the sub receiver is hot or muted, the transmitted audio and cw side tone are still on the rear af out jack. If your looking to record in mono, then use a stereo output connector on the rear af out audio jack, and then simply connect the two separate outputs together as a single out put and send it to your recording source. Have done that many times here and it works find. There are adapters at Radio Shack to do just this arrangement if you don't want to hard wire it Enjoy, glad to be of help. 73 from Bill - WD8ARZ wd8arz@ix.netcom.com ---- Original Message ----- From: John Devoldere To: yaesu@contesting.com Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2001 18:24 Subject: [Yaesu] available audio on FT100MP or MK V The audio oputput available oin the RTTY, FSK or AF-out connector of the Ft1000 MP (or mark V) only gives the receive audio.

N5KO and I paid for the original server, and I've paid for a new motherboard and a hard drive or two when they have failed. But now its time to replace the entire box. I had hoped to get eHam.net to pay for the new server, but there hasn't been enough revenue from advertising. The plan is to purchase a used box on eBay or UBid. We don't have big CPU/Memory requirements. We just need something with redundant hard drives (RAID) and power supplies, and hopefully something new enough that we can find replacement parts if something fails. I hope some of you will have extracted enough value from these lists to see fit to contribute something toward a new server. Your contribution will only go to the purchase of a new contesting.com mail server. Nothing else. We will take up $1,000 in contributions, and if the server costs more... N5KO, AD1C, KM3T, and I will make up the difference.

I understand that it is called a diode mod. I have an FT-890, and simply replaced all of the 1SS184 rectifiers (diodes are tubes, aren't they :-) ) before the preamp with Motorola MPN3404 PIN diodes. There are quite a few in the bandpass filter. I also replaced D2001 and D2002 with MI308 (higher voltage) ones while I was at it, per a Yaesu Tech Bulletin. www.rfparts.com has both of these types. I also replaced the 1ss184 (surface mount dual) types up through the roofing filter, with low capacitance PIN types. Can't remember where I found these replacements.

From what I can discern from the schematics, XF2001 is a 12Khz(?) wide roofing filter in the 8.2Mhz if, ahead of the narrower user-selectable crystal filters. Appreciate any info or comments.

Message-ID: <1009454632.2193.0.camel@localhost.localdomain> Hi, I think, over the years, a lot of us have seen an FT-7B where someone put an 11 meter crystal into slot 10C or 10D, and I have just seen one of those again. That got me thinking: how narrow is the bandpass filter for 10 meters? Could a 39.5MHz crystal for 12 meters be used without sacrificing 10 meters, or would the bandpass filter need to be retuned? Has anyone tried this? It would be really nice to be able to add 12 meters to the rig without losing 10 meters.

See if you can cause the problem to occur. Also check for a cold solder joints on the SO-239s and on the switching board. Lightly tapping on the relays on the switching circuit board may also narrow down your search.
