These are cool!

[@kissingbanditt]

Wow what a beauty ❤

[@mutezone]

Very nice, I am impressed by its build quality. Many congrats on the purchase. Now all that is left is for me to get a Yaesu transceiver to do a C4FM contact with you ;) Have lots of fun & 73.

Nice. We’ll be able to talk directly through WIRES-X when you get that sorted out, and HF as well whenever I get that part of my station reestablished. Congrats.

That's awesome Danny. Congrats on the new addition and looking forward to future videos featuring this Yaesu.

So, I am in the process of repairing my VHF/UHF Xmit on my 991A. I seem to have issues getting the V_U_Amp board out as the solder is taking a tremendous amount of heat to melt and this WILL cause damage to neighboring components. I have purchased several irons including the actual hot air gun normally used for SMD work and this too is not melting the solder. The big issue is getting the antenna connector separated to remove the board and then to identify and replace the 47 ohm resistor(s) that may be damaged and caused one half of VHF/UHF final to fail. I know the tricks of aluminum foil and heat sinks to take up the heat but I am concerned about doing a shoddy job even though its my radio and will never sell it. My actual question after all of that is, does anyone know if Yaesu uses specific tools or items to take up the heat on their particular radios? If they have a procedure normally used for this work they will not impart that to me of course but I would appreciate any info on this. I am a electronic tech so I have done this work before and just need the right tools they use unless someone has replaced the resistors and final for the VUAmp board.
