HI FOLKS,
IT IS POSSIBLE TO LET YOUR RIG CONTROL YOUR ANTENNAS OR OTHER STUFF
(AMPS,..)WITH YAESU RADIO'S WHO HAVE A BANDDATA OUT CONNECTOR (8 PENS
TYPE E07-0851-05 FROM KENWOOD FITS HI). TNX TO CHUCK KE9UW WHO HELPED
WITH THIS VERY NICE GADGET. THE 10 OUTPUTS CAN BE CONFIGERED TO YOUR
OWN
NEEDS, PRO BAND A SELECTION OR A COMBINED (10-15-20 BEAM) SELECTION
IS POSSIBLE. I MADE ALL OUTPUTS WITH OPTOCOUPLERS AND 4 AMP RATING
TRANSISTORS, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY OFF 10 OUTPUTS, 9 OFF THEM ARE IN
USE NOW 160 ---> 10 METER AND MY GESSING IS THAT THE TENTH OUTPUT WILL
WORK ON THE NEW YAESU FT920 FOR 6 METER BUT NOT SHURE OFF THIS.
SO IF THERE IS MANY DEMAND AFTER THIS GADGET I CAN PUT IT ON MY
HOMEPAGE
LIKE THERE IS ALLREADY A CATCONTROL FOR THE FT1000MP
73 DE GUY ON4AOI
P.S. IDEAL FOR CONTESTERS, ALLWAYS ON THE PROPER ANTENNA OR FOR PEOPLE
WHO OFTEN FORGET TO CHANGE ANTENNA WHEN CHANGING BANDS AND IT WORKS
WITH
THE AMERITRON RCS-8V REMOTE COAX SWITCH.
