The very first thing I did as soon as I got my foundation licence was to acquire a cheap hand held, I bought my self a copy of The Rig Guide from the RSGB to see what I should be paying and searched Ebay and found a second hand Yaesu VX- 2e. It was good enough to get on the air without too much in the way of antenna’s etc.
Although the Yaesu VX- 2e only has a 1W output on 70cm and 1.5W on 2m on the internal battery it was sufficient to get me onto to the local 70cm repeater GB3CR without too much of a problem. I have now got my Watson W- 2000 installed and I find it is great at my QTH for 2m/70cm but at this time it is still needs to be raised a bit higher. I also managed to get an end- fed long wire across the garden at about 12ft high into a 9:1 balun and in turn into my Z- 817 auto tuner. I have managed some QRP Hf contacts on 20m into Bulgaria, Ukraine & Italy so I am quite pleased with that I just want to extend the long wire around my garden a bit more. But that will have to wait until I can pack the wife off somewhere for a day or two. I know the Yaesu FT- 817ND is a portable rig, but I was getting frustrated by having to disconnect everything each morning to put it in the car before leaving for work.
So I got the Rig Guide out again and decided on getting myself a Yaesu FT- 7800E Dual Band 2m/70cm. I had decided to finance this purchase with the proceeds of the sale of some of the receivers I have mentioned in my other pages, the Pro- 2045, DX 394 provided sufficient funds to buy the FT- 7800E again off Ebay again this was an immaculate radio. The guy I bought it off even delivered it to work the next day at Runcorn for me. I have to say that it is quite a nice radio, it’s got good audio and the advantage of picking yet another Yaesu is that the programming is a piece of cake for all the local repeaters using G0LFP’s CSV file generator FTB csv generator.
The programs I find that work for me to squirt the csv files into the different Yaesu radio’s are listed below, remembering each radio needs it’s own particular interface to the PC. I went to the NARSA rally at Blackpool again this year andPicked up a Wouxun KG- UVD1P Dual band hand held. I wanted something with a little more punch then the VX2R that I already have and for the price of £89 it was a bargain. The programming of the unit is best done with the aid of a computer otherwise you will have to try and work out what is going on from the manual, which is a little difficult to understand. I think it is a nice package and will be great fun when out and about during the summer. The latest addition to my ever growing collection of transceivers is the Yaesu ftm- 400de which my xyl bought me for Christmas this year.
I have been hankering after an APRS capable rig for some time & this one really took my fancy. The ftm- 400de is also one of the latest “Fusion” C4FM digital radios from Yaesu, luckily we have a Fusion repeater being GB3MN over in Stockport so I think I will get some use out of it on my travels to work in Runcorn. I bought the RT systems ADMS- M400 programming kit for it, it really make life easy when setting up the frequencies I want and the radio options. I cant wait to get out on the road with this radio and see what the new world of APRS opens up for me.
