- FT 209R/FT 209RH Modification
- =============================
-
- It is possible to activate any 10MHz segment between 130 and 160 MHz on the
- FT 209 Handie from Yaesu. First you have to solder in the bridge 7 on the
- control unit board (PCB with the keypad). Now after a reset the display shows
- you "0000" with the first digit flashing and you have to enter the receiving
- low, receiving high, transmitting low and transmitting high frequencies (only
- the first 4 digits!). For example:
- If you wish a receiving segment from 142.500 to 151.800 and a transmitting
- segment from 144.000 to 146.000MHz you must enter the following after the
- reset:
-
- 1 4 2 5 D
- 1 5 1 8 D
- 1 4 4 0 D
- 1 4 6 0 D
-
- Finally you must program the repeater shift. The shift is NOT set to 600KHz.
- Enter 0 6 0 0 F shift. That's all.
- The PLL locks only between 138 - 152MHz successfully and transmitter works
- only between 140 - 149MHz. If you want to use other frequencies you must
- realign the rig.
