FT-847 Interfacing cables

 

Hello All,

Looking for a little help on the FT-847 EXT ALC Cable. I could find no reference to a part number in my manual. I did locate on pg 14 both the STBY Cable and the ALC Cable. Was the ALC? Cable ever available from Yaesu?

FT847 avaiilable

 

I have an FT847 which is now surplus to my needs since I have bought my ic7300.? I would like to make it available for free to a good home or perhaps also for parts.? It has sat on my shelf for several years since I used it.? Let me know of any interest.

I live in Ontario Canada.? Reply to my email joe at laferla dot ca.? Thanks for any interest.

Unidirectional CAT

 

I have a FT847 but my serial number 8Exxx. This corresponds to the number before the famous 8GE series. I understand that I have a one-way CAT connection. So is there a modification for this or how can I switch to a bidirectional CAT connection?


Firmware FT847

 

Hi,
I had been wondering if anyone has flashed the firmware on a Yaesu FT847? The original firmware allows for Doppler shifting as we all know and obviously inhibits full duplex on same band which is understandable. What CAT commands can also do is switch on SPLIT. However, SPLIT does not allow you to write to the SUB-VFO in SPLIT mode.

Does anyone has experience of flashing the original firmware for the FT847? I wonder is a modified Firmware could send CAT commands (if the CPU allows it) to the SUB-VFO in SPLIT mode?

If anyone has any thoughts on this I would be grateful to hear. I honestly can’t see hardware constraints and the commands may be implemented but hidden as they may not be needed.

I can’t see any reason to swap SUB-VFO for the main VFO set the frequency and swap it back again if it’s constrained. Every button must go via the processor and thus must be selectable from the CPU command set as a register. Simply having the code available to set a button in the firmware should unlock access to a command set for every button (totally overkill but workable).

Again thoughts appreciated,

Kind regards,

De Spence M0STO

Re: Din plugs for FT840 and FT847

 

mouser.com and digikey.com have a selection of mini DIN connectors, AllElectronics and Hosfelt were good choices but they are both no longer in business.

Re: CAT Isolated?

 

I found that RT Systems programing software provided a USB to serial interface for the FT-847.
Also enabled PCSat32 (and Ham Radio Deluxe)? to work fine.?

Re: CAT Isolated?

 

Thx Jeff for answering. It will work fine but I want to isolate between PC and Yaesu.?Does this null modem cable (FTDI,Profilic,CH340 etc.) provide isolation between the PC and Yaesu? As far as I know it doesn't.
