  • @dougmyers8767
    @dougmyers8767 2 месяца назад

    I had the MARS mod done on one of my 857Ds. It messed up the automatic frequency shift for repeaters. The mod allowed me to transmit on 11m but since the radio isn't FCC certified it was legal unless under emergency situation. No longer interested in MARS I went back to original configuration. After I joined a volunteer fire department I kind of wished I left it alone. However, transmitting on FD frequencies on a non type accepted radio also puts a frown on the FCC's faces. Now the department uses UHF digital radios that are P25 so it doesn't matter anymore.

  • @j.lietka9406

    Did you replace the caps with similar (or close) values? How many screws did you have to remove / reinstall? 150? 200? 🤔

    • @salvagegeek
      @salvagegeek 2 месяца назад

      I always use the same capacitance value, but i usually try to go one step up on the voltage rating if i can physically fit them in. Most new capacitors are a bit smaller in size so it works. A higher voltage value capacitor will last longer. It doesn't care what voltage it uses as long as you don't go over the rated voltage. I also purchase the highest temperature rated caps i can get and the longest hours i can get for a reasonable price.

    • @salvagegeek

      It can but it won't make any power increase. The only reason to do a mosfet swap is because you can't buy the bipolar finals any more.

Apesar do 2200h ter áudio forte do microfone 🎙️. 2 amigos resolveram problema de áudio baixo só resetando o equipamento ! Vale muito a pena fazer ou colocar 1 Mike de ganho, fica bem legal. Seria interessante nesse projeto, puxar 2 fios e junto com o resistor SMD ou não; colocar 1 chave para alterar os modos com ou menos ganho, pois se colocar 1 Mike de ganho poderia saturar, ok ? Mas parabéns pelo vídeo e compartilhamento do conhecimento ! TKS e big 73 from here of Brasil ✌️😆 Fica com Deus 🙏 Saúde e bons contatos é o que eu + desejo para todos amigos.

  • @caerffili_callin
    @caerffili_callin 6 месяцев назад

    You make that look very easy! The contacts are tiny, I did my 'D' model mainly with a silver conductive pen, as my solder skills were not as good a yours. I managed to remove some of the contacts with a fine tipped iron as required, but used the pen for the rest. Been working fine for quite a few years now.

  • @bradgravel7786
    @bradgravel7786 6 месяцев назад

    Hi there from Northern Alberta! I just got this radio and did the mod. Worked as it should. Just wondering what programming software you use afterwards? The RT systems is nice but doesn't work after modded. Also chirp doesn't work for the mod. Maybe its possible to not do the factory reset after the mod? Progamming repeaters one by one in the radio is pretty tedious. Would like to hear your thoughts! Cheers.
