yaesu ft-101E speach processor installation?

[speedracer6g]

I have a Yaesu FT-101E here on the bench and i need directions on how to install the speach processor option. I have the board here and all the wiring is ready to go i just need ot hook this board up. I have a munual on order but i am not sure if it has the info in it. If anyone has one with the speach processro installed pictures would be helpful.

thanks,

MIKE

My understanding is that the ft-101e came with a speech processor.
It has a switch labelled "process" on it?

The ft-101 models before the 101e didnt have the processor, and the 101ee didn't either.

Dead on, Dudmuck!

Here's another link for some interesting reading about all the variants of the FT-101:

Wait for the manual to show up, Mike. It should have everything you need about the SPEECH processor.

I was reading on this particular model and i guess it was and option that this one could have and was only istalled if ordered that way. I thought the info would be in the manual as well. I will post my results. If i have any other questions i will get back to you.

thanks guys,

FT-101 Service Manual, Modifications Chapter, Section 6, Pages 1 - 12, beginning on page 142 of the PDF File.

there are two rf processor boards, (RFP-101) the PB1494 for the 101/101B and the PB1534 for the 101E/101EE/101EX and THEY ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE! the modification procedure varies significantly for models bearing serial numbers above and below 150000.
