How To Setup a Yaesu FT2DR Wires X Node SCU 39 cable kit
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- There is a new firmware update for the FT2DR that allows you to turn it into a Wires-X node. I used the SCU-39 wire kit to connect the radio to a Windows 10 laptop.

Thanks!
still new in learning my ft70d and reading the manual and watching the youtube videos for fussion and wies-x info
That was fun last night. Great explanation of what is needed to get set up and talking. I hope your wife heals up quick! Enjoy Winter Field Day!
Thanks for all you do on your channel!! Appreciate the FT-2D videos 👍👍😀
could you protect my led`s for me?
This is pretty cool but I think I'd rather go the Hotspot route (although more expensive) just for more versatility and not worry about being tethered to a computer all the time. Just upgraded from a baofeng to an ft3dr. I'm pretty excited to play with all these new functions.
Question: I'm just getting started with all this and I'm having an issue. Just like you I have it all set up: HRI Mode direct on my FT2D and it's good in digital mode; BUT when I'm transmitting in analog mode (but pushing the V/M button getting the asterisk*) I get feedback. Is this making any sense? I've followed the instructions from the WIRES-X PDN Function Instruction manual to a 'T'.
I’m in direct and can receive audio. When I transmit it only shows local when I key the radio. It does not transmit over the net and make it to the room. Anyone run into this problem?
when you connect the splitter are you doing it to the actual jack or the dongle that they supplied in the kit trying to figure this out myself. having the hand mic would be a lot easier
I'm guessing the splitter goes straight into the radio jack and the dongle into the splitter.
Here is a different rub, My FT300 and my FT70 will both connect to my hotspot and talk through a wires-x room, BUT my FT5 will not get through to the room. They can talk back and forth on the reflector, but the FT5 won't cross the bridge. Any ideas??
I’d check that your actually getting into wiresx it’s likely just the overlay for controls.
@@HamRadioCrashCourse HI, Not sure what you mean by that. I am making it through with my FTM300 and my FT70....I can hear myself coming back through on the local repeater. But not with the FT5
This is one of those ones I’d need to see to diagnose.
Wayyyyy toooo complicated even for a tech-savvy 70-something like me. Already have an FT-70, don’t care about mobile, so FTM-100 and an HRI-200 makes a lot more sense. It’s about $360 for ft2dr and cable kit, and for just 60 bucks more I can get the ftm100 and the hri. No brainer for me. Thanks for video and making up my mind.
I think I'm with you on that one. The FTM-100 and HRI-200 is going to give you an easier setup and more power.
Thanks for you efforts to help us. A friend has FT2D with SCU39, but not a Combo Audio splitter for the PC. It looks like your using a USB/Audio splitter for PC ? If Correct, What brand please?
Theses videos are so helpful
Was trying to find your little zoom spot via web search . . . was this something you made, or does it possibly go by a different name?
It’s a pistar, sold at the hro.
Thanks 🤙🏼
2 tone paging, kenwood can be had on eBay fairly cheaply as well as some Motorola’s. Hope you found one
im having the same issue you did with no sound Did you say i have to hook up an external speaker to my laptop to get the sound out. My laptop has a separate jack for mic and speaker so im not using a splitter or usb sound splitter
Yeah you’ll need to split the connections. I just juggled them around until I found what worked.
@@HamRadioCrashCourse even though my pc has a port for both? ive tried every combo nothing is working
Do you have that audio splitter like I have on the video?
Ham Radio Crash Course no because my laptop has both ports for mic and headphones
Fantastic videos! I am curious if you have one to set up the FTM-100DR as a node too? This video should get me close as they are similar in operation. Keep up the great work!
I can't find this cable kit for sale anywhere.... :(
Go nuts www.hamradio.com/detail.cfm?pid=H0-016590
So in the first mode, you did not need an antenna, right?
I’d just leave an antenna connected at all times.
Just to clarify, in Digital only mode, an antenna is not needed, correct? So how does the frequency in the radio come into play? Or is everything run through the software on the PC?
Yaesu needs to figure out a way to #1 make this stuff WAY less complicated. Absolutely insane. And #2 make this compatible with Mac. I shouldn’t have to use windows. 🤮
just got ft3 how much of this stuff work on it
All of it.
I'd like to know what cable you had to use to get your Yaesu speaker mic to work in direct mode. Also, your link to the SCU-39 kit is not correct. Great video BTW.
just a stereo mic spliter.
@@HamRadioCrashCourse Thought the mic/speaker jack is 4 pin???
@@HamRadioCrashCourse Does the splitter go into the radio itself or the dongle? I can hear but can not transmit
Regarding two tone paging, the FT3DR will do this. This is probably too late to help your caller.
The only problem with mobile node based on ft2,3,100-400 - is that you can't operate your own room.
Like you I am a Yaesu guy. However like a number of Yaesu radios you can’t get the SCU-39 because no one has them...not sure how you got yours. I’ll watch the video when the cable kit comes out.
I watched the HRO website and ordered it when the item showed up over a month ago. I was the first wave of shipments.
It's more interesting to setup a Jumbospot with YSF2DMR or simply YSF than WiresX.. more people to talk with... More cheap and freedom to make changes and improvements.
I rather use My Open Spot 4 for Yeasu Fusion, also Why not Connect Your Bluetooth directly to Your PC,
Ngl. Thats kinda fucked up that people charge to use their repeaters. Kind of defeats the whole purpose of not being able to make a profit off of ham radio. Or rather is a sneaky way to get around it.
Repeaters aren’t free. Easily hundred a month in power and rent.
@@HamRadioCrashCourse mm. That is a good point.
Although all of the clubs I've joined that are free I end up donating to anyways. But yeah I suppose I didnt account for that part.
It is NOT self explanatory. You do not know where the two audio cable go! Bad video.
So confusing. I couldn't be bothered!
Too bad all this has to be done on the crappy windows platform.
