Jan 20, 2009 · FT-950 upgrade I have used my FT-950 for over a year and have been happy with it. A nice radio for the money. I finally got around to CAREFULLY reading the manual. I have a dislike of manuals in general, but I should have listened to the advice of so many. Yesterday I downloaded the software from Yaesu and upgraded the radio.

May 19, 2012 · Yes, there is a learning curve for the 950 and will be for the 3000. For example, I have found two ways on the 950 to use a separate receive antenna and the 950's DSP works flawlessly if you know how to use it. In review, the FT-3000's spectral display and IF out are a plus, but the rest is a step backwards.

Mar 6, 2017 · I recorded the video using my Yaesu FT-950, at a typical DX receive bandwidth of 2400Hz. The distance between my station, in Seoul Korea, and his in the Philippines, was about 1600 miles (2573 km). As he felt with his Yaesu 450D, I believed the stock MD-31 microphone on my FT-950 did a pretty poor job of exploiting the rig’s excellent ...

Mar 11, 2011 · FT-950 , in other hand, much better quality radio, it is DSP IF radio, ( IC-718 is all analog ) , to use with USB or AM, DSP work much better demodulation and removing noises. my opinion is , if you are going to use for SSB, buy FT-950, of cause FT-950 is …

Jul 6, 2017 · Well, the ARRL review of the FT-950 showed that it also had some rather poor 2kHz close-signal performance. So that's probably not the best rig for comparison. I understand you are comparing radios you have, and that's fine. Some of the 891's lab-measured values were worse than for the 950 (e.g, 2k blocking gain compression on 80m). 2k RM ...

Apr 30, 2018 · I always adjusted the ALC on my FT-950 for ZERO deflection on the ALC meter. One thing I noticed was that power out would vary depending on what frequency within the passband I was transmitting...not because the software had adjusted the drive levels.

Aug 26, 2017 · My power meter indicated 20-30 watts carrier on the maximum FT-991 AM power setting (40), depending on band, and 40-60 watts peak power when fully modulated. 4. AM RX tone can be adjusted to be very high quality by turning off AM high and low cut RX filters (menu items 41-44), setting the analog RX filter to 9 KHz and setting the Contour ...

Aug 5, 2021 · The Yaesu FT-991A or the Icom IC-7300, both great radios for the starting ham. In this video I hope to answer that question and show the key similarities, differences and specifications that I looked at when comparing the two radios.
