Should I install a shunt coil onto a 102" whip feed point? (This would be between the whip base and FC-40.) 73, Damon

To remote my FC-40 I use Ethernet cables with DIN to RJ adapters. I bought the male and female DIN connectors with short pigtails from W4RT and the Ethernet cables and connectors from Home Depot. The

I want to purchase a fc40 but need to locate it 30-40 feet away from the shack outside. What are you guys using to extend the 15 meter long cables?

i have a fc1000 ... it is almost like the fc40 .... i had some spare room in it to put a 1:4 balun in now i have a ladderline output on it (switchable) it tunes dipoles and loops very easy just my 2

I agree with this. I've got an FC-40 and it will tune a loop just fine. Actually, when I tested it, it tuned a full wave 80 meter loop on all bands 80 and above. WN9E

The FC-40 will tune a loop, I made a 160 meter loop for field day and it worked just fine

Does anyone know if a Yaesu FC40 will work with Yaesu FT 847 without a lot of rewiring? Thanks, Jon - KA9LDS

How you can be sure that FC40 does not tune loops ? Is there something different than Icom products like AH4 , AH3 etc. They can tune loops very well. I have AH3 and FC40, I have done some loop

Does anyone have any information on the functions of the extra dip switches inside the FC-40. I know about the memory reset but the others must have some fuction. My attempt at a google search yielded

Well I believe I have the inadequate ground issue solved. I brought home a 7' solid steel 7/8 rod and drove it into the ground below the tuner. I felt like I was "working on the railroad". I connected

The suggestion for salt water was not a reference to what a sea water ground can do. It was a suggestion to improve the two existing grounds by doing something easy. Very often regardless of how good

ground. That's why it is called a random wire length tuner. The tuner should also be length insensitive (to a point - it won't tune a loop). '73, JD, VA7BTL<<< That is true about the ground. A

The tuner (coupler) should not need a counterpoise just a good ground. That's why it is called a random wire length tuner. The tuner should also be length insensitive (to a point - it won't tune a

I thought the rebar was to far from You have a good ground now, but a counterpoise is also needed. Add as much wire as possible in the crawl space, but a couple of wire as far apart as possible as

my fc1000 can tune 160 with a 3m whip!!!!! best 73?s dg9bfc

15 feet from tuner to ground = 5m = quarterwave for 20 ..... so i think that is acting as an isolation for 20m .... best is to use multiple wires with different lnght for the groundwires to a proper

JR, I have also run the FC-40 as well as SGCs' and SEA couplers. One thing I have noticed is that the couplers sometimes have a problem with 1/2 wavelength wires. I would either take off about 10' of

Thanks for all the helpful information. I have found a combination that works pretty well although I still cannot tune 75/80 meters. I am really baffled though about the current ground setup. The

Is there anyway to move the coupler outside the house? Your antenna starts at the coupler, which means you are probably getting RFI and such from a couple of thing: your antenna is radiating next to
