You DON'T press a PTT without a matched antenna attached, Frank. It can damage or destroy the output stage of the radio. Take heed, beginners, this was a poor demonstration.

I love this radio. I’ve had mine for about 6 years now. After my son became a ham he requested the same radio. I wasn’t going to say no 😂. It’s funny though you get a couple of famous KZbinrs finally discover this rugged radio then everyone jumps on the bandwagon. Yeasu has a great product here and I hope they don’t mess with it. I use a SignalStick with BNC and a bnc stubby and the Long Ranger with it. But if I’m on the water I stick with the stock rubber duck to keep the radio 100% waterproof. 73’s

Why are you screwing around with this radio without the antenna attached? I guess you want to risk blowing it up. 😊

I did the MARS mod on mine, it gives you a 4th band, 6 meters.

WX on is when your radio switches automatically to weather channels and back to your scanning

Ive got one of these... there seems to be a distinct lack of 3.5mm waterproof jack options for things like ptt connecting to earpro.
