    I understand this radio has a port for a GPS antenna to plug into. However, I don't see any info about the size of this port. Where can I get the info about it? I have an external GPS antenna that has an SMA connector, so I'd like to know what (if any adaptor) I could get to connect the GPS antenna to this radio.

      The best place to look for accurate information is in the user manuals on the Yaesu website (bit.ly/3CVUZ5t), or ask Yaesu directly through their support channels (bit.ly/3Mx8awS). I also did a Google search for "FTM-300DR external GPS" and found this page: bit.ly/3sb98FL

    @g.h.2800 4 года назад +1

    The only thing what I do not like, is the SO-239 female connector, bad looses & impedance for over 300Mhz. Why not N-Connector, like in the Europe version in some FT models?

    About 16 Months ago, I bought an FTM 100 D. The radio itself is fine, but it has issues for me in terms of my Diabetic Eyes, and Aspergers Syndrome. So I am selling the FTM 100. When that deal is done, I probably WILL get a new 300.

      The manual says it requires 13.8V at least 15A, so any quality power supply of at least 15A would work. Samlex and Astron both make great 20A supplies. Something like this would work: www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-012070 or www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-004427

    Nice presentation Katie. Shame Yaesu punted on memory management, and had to disable the touch screen display (which is the same on FT3D). The 3D screen dumps noise into the receiver. Please do another review when Icom makes their next D-Stat rig announcement. Hope the Icom rig will be produced other than in China. Hello to Mom.

      Katie was the Social Media Manager at HRO until October 2020. HRO has 13 stores nationwide, but we also have a large internet presence. You don't have to work on location at our HQ in CA to do internet work... so her commute was non-existent.

    If I was to down grade on the next radio I would buy a 'used' ftm-100, If I was to go cheaper, the FTM-100 is a better deal. Unless you run APRS, then buy the FTM-400.
