    Ham radio mounting locations

    Does anyone have pictures of where they've mounted a ham radio in the 2016+ LX 570? I have a Yaseu FTM-400 but can't figure out a satisfactory place to put the display / control unit, as in general the dash on the LX 570 is kind of cluttered.

    ham radio or bust....

    well, I bit the bullet and bought....not just one...but two baofeng uv 5r radios (ham version). Reason: intraclub comms, and because ana goes on these long distance mountain hikes and need some way to communicate (thus qty = 2). We do have the inreach (for big time emergencies) and a couple of...

    New phone mount for the FZJ-80! and CB and 2M

    I like to make stuff and I just got a 80 a few months ago. I figured this would be a fun side project to modernize the comms of the greatest vehicle ever made. 95-97 FZJ-80 only, sorry the FJ-80 has a different dash. Here is video explaining what the mounts are, and what they like to hold and...

    Help me pick out HAM gear?

    I had been planning to install GMRS in my 200, but it turns out my local club uses ham. Slee is going to have my truck pulled apart next month, so I need to sort out the comm gear for them to install. I don’t have my ham license yet, but I’m going to work on that, but I need your help on...

    People that use HAM / GMRS / CB's in your GX460, a minute of your time...

    I have been researching the best location on the GX460 to pass the antenna wire from the outside of the truck to the inside of the truck, so far I haven't found an ideal spot. I have done some searching around on the forum, but not very many discussion on the antenna; and the ones I have found...

    HAM license renewal

    …worked quite smoothly this week. I got the approval link within a day. I don’t know exactly what’s different, but the attempt last winter to renew my GMRS license was so much of a mess that I let it lapse. Main problem was that the link between my FRN and my licenses never made it over to the...

    What is this?

    Moving comms over to new 200. Had Ham mounted to the plastic cover under passenger side dash. My 2013 does not have this wire and device. Looks like a microphone or HVAC sensor. New 200 is 2015.

    Ham Mobile Install. FTM400

    Hey everyone, Just thought I'd share my ham mobile install. There's limited real-estate in the 470's for mounting options. So here's what I did for my FTM400 and auxiliary speaker. All the cables were passed through the firewall where the hood release cable passes through, and ran under the...

    HAM license renewal

    I know that some of us are about to encounter our first HAM license renewal, 'cause we took the test about the same time. Here's the process that I just went through: FCC will send you a reminder of expiration, along with the means of sending a check or renewing via online. I chose the...

    Help HAM newbie with Yaesu FT-60R

    In regard to using repeaters: I tune to the OUTPUT frequency of the repeater station. If I have ARS (Automatic Repeater Shift) enabled, any transmission I make while tuned to the output frequency will occur on the correct INPUT frequency for the repeater? Is this correct? Beyond the...

    Ham/CB Microphone Holders

    I've had my radios mounted like this for quite a few years now but haven't thought of a clever way to secure the mics. I'm curious what those with radios are doing. I've thought about the @bhicks mic holders but I use the stock cubby to hold stuff and I have two mics to secure. Gearkeepers also...

    Modded cassette deck for HAM face plate mount.

    I finally bought a mobile ham radio for my rig last week and had been struggling with where to mount it. I wanted it in a place that was easy to see and touch but wasn't in the way and wouldn't provide more clutter. I looked at the dash and thought that the cassette deck was in about the...
