Re: Molex plug for FT847 power.
Hello Jim The Molex 39-03-6064 was a bust. The pitch is 6.7mm as the rig's pitch is 6.0mm I did manage to crimp the crap connector female pins with a .100" crimper and they now fit nicely in the stock

Re: Molex plug for FT847 power.
Hello Pat. I need the socket that mates with the power cord end (or same as socket on the back of the radio) so I can make an adapter cable to try and fix an Icom that uses a 4 pin Molex!? Not sure

Re: Molex plug for FT847 power.
Hello Sjoerd. That (AliExpress part) is the wrong end.? I need the one that mates to it.? I think (hope) the Molex 39-03-6064 you linked at Mouser is the one I need. Thank you. Jim Pruitt WA7DUY

If you think that is expensive, wait until you price the crimping tool! Micky K1XH Links: ------ [1] /g/YaesuFT847/message/896 [2] /mt/104208473/1045683 [3]

Re: Molex plug for FT847 power.

Re: Molex plug for FT847 power.
You could also try the rear panel connector for FT857 or FT897, seeing as they are the same item, and more likely to be available Andy

Molex plug for FT847 power.
Can someone give me the Molex/Waldon part number for the power plug for the FT847 (and cord mounted socket for it if you know)?? I see places that sell the cable but nowhere do I find the part number

Re: FT8 and ALC
So for SSB modulation, the volume level is what sets the output power to a large extent. So both the power output setting on the radio and the volume setting on the computer interact. How do you
