I bought the programming cable and software for my Yaesu FT-100D Shack-in-the-box radio, from Walmart. While the cable is correct, the software does not list any Yaesu software. Unless there is a generic software I'm not familiar with, I'm pretty sure I got taken to the cleaners. The software...

I club member re-tuned the radio on all bands and recorded his TX signal using a violin, sending out two notes. The recording was then compared to the send TX and they matched.(he has all the tools and proper test equipment) He also found the memory battery was installed up side down! He told...

My FT-100D was working great, now I'm getting signal reports of loud "RF" type noise on my transmissions. So much so, I cannot be understood. I replaced the microphone with a new one and the problem is still there. The settings in the radio are as posted on the web as normal. Any ideas as to...

I need help in wiring the headset to my Pierce-Simpson Panther radio.I'm unable to findd the wiring info for the plug on the TELEX CB-1200.

The Wilson Trucker Noise Canceling microphone ( non-battery powered) showed up today. None of the wires made any sense when I Ohm'ed them out. I opened up the mic and the radio plug. The previous owner was only using three of the pins*. The Mic has six wires. (* as I'd like to do for my...
