Re: 200W power output !!! Is this OK?
There are very few watt meters (ham) that are accurate today. I calibrate everyone that comes through here. But think how great it makes you feel to double your output by replacing your meter! hi hi

Re: FT-301 - A repair journey begins
This is a problem with the 301. I do have an instruction sheet on how to set the SSB osc's. You would think they would run 1.5 kc of center but there is a problem in the filter board I think. I set

Re: FT-301 - A repair journey begins
In Europe they were sold as the Sommer Kamp 301. I probably have a good meter if you can't find one. Dave

Re: FT-301 - A repair journey begins
The front panel on the 301 is very easy to remove. Take a pick if you don't have a spare but no surprises in there. Just wrench time. Dave

Re: Removing FT-301 VFO mechanism ?
You don't have to remove the VFO to install the stabilizer. I've done lots of them. Directions are in the Elcon library. Easy job with basic ham skills. Dave

Re: FT-301AD vs FT-301A differences
Very minor differences. The board had defiant #'s but all interchange. Dave

Re: In search of AM filter
Hi Fred. I've been trying to make this work for a while. I'm no wizard with computers. Calrad was making kits for filters. All my AM filters are in use. Every one I build gets a AM filter, even the

Can't figure out how to respond to other comments?
Can anyone help? I have many of these and parts. Computers aren't my strong suit. Radio's are fairly easy. Dave

Re: Removing FT-301 VFO mechanism ?
Easy fix. Replace the grease and the ball bearings. Hardware store, bearing company or auto parts. Standard size. Please let me know if this is going through. I've been trying to get on here for some

Convert WWV band spot to 30M
A while back I ran across a PDF online detailing one ham's analysis of what it would take to convert a '301 to transceive on 10MHz. Looked in the Files section...nada. Anyone else remember seeing

Re: In search of AM filter
Hi Fred. You are correct that having an AM filter would improve the listening experience. I your case though, given how difficult it is to find a filter and the fact that the 301 isn't general

Re: FT-301 hacks
Hi Mark, I also have two after-market filters that mostly have unintelligible writing on them. I <think> one of them is an Inrad/FoxTango (Blue lettering/sticker) 250Hz CW and the other might be a

Re: Optional CW, AM filter installations
I believe that the original Yaesu approach was to jumper the unoccupied AM filter slot to the SSB filter. Resulting in a 2.7 KHz BW on AM Rx. Bypassing using either a cap or resistors will yield a

Re: Optional CW, AM filter installations
That's an even simpler AM 'filter' than my three resistor proposal. Was it usable, or just too wwwiiidddeee?! Regards, Mark, G4FPH.

Re: Optional CW, AM filter installations
I also had the CW and SSB filters paralleled.? The AM filter was empty.? I fixed this and put a .01 uF capacitor across the empty AM filter position in mine.

In search of AM filter
Hi My old 1977 FT-301D never had a AM filter. I was wondering where I could find one and how to go about installing one. The filter board just has the stock CW and SSB filters. I can listen to AM
