    Just finished replacing the 3x 455 IF filters, what a Pain in the Axis!
    I still love this little wonder, especially with a Bluetooth CAT interface and a Raspberry PI as audio-driver.
    And an ATAS-120 for /P operations!
    Thanks for the video Tony!

    Nice rigs! You have done some good research on the versions!
    I have had a 857D since around 2006, and other than having to replace a faulty ceramic filter, it has been an amazing radio. I still can't believe that a replacement for this radio, in this kind of form factor, is still not available to this day... (That is ALL MODE and "DC to Daylight"). 😉👍

    De 857 blijft toch wel een van mijn favorite sets HF/VHF/UHF in zo een klein doosje, naja de bandscope moet je er bij denken als je daar aan gewend bent maar er gaat niks boven door de banden draaien zonder te weten wat je tegenkomt. Ga zo door! 73 de PA3BLI

      Dank je Danny, je super leuk klein setje. ik heb dat gevoel ook bij mijn eerste HF, de FT-450 ... Het is allemaal erg basic vergeleken bij de FT-DX10 maar het is wel dat spannede geveol van je eerste HF set :) 73 Tony PE1ONS

    As always: nice video, but......
    I'm not sure, but are you using the right screwdriver? Much of the equipment from Japan does not use Philips or Pozidriv screws, but JIS (Japan Industrial Standards).
    The screw can be recognized by a small hole on the head of the screw.
    Don't kill your screws. :-)

      Hi Rene, interesting you mention that, good point, i am, my dad worked with Icom for many years, and this is his Japan screwdriver indeed.

    Hey man, I need help.
    W5WPS here.
    Yaesu 857d.
    I cannot listen to general FM broadcasts anymore, local radio.
    The mode it says is WFM.
    I cannot change the mode to fm. The manual doesn’t have WFM as one of the modes.
    The mode button works on all other freg.
    Help.

    • @TonyAlbus
      @TonyAlbus  6 місяців тому

      Hi, WFM is good for commercial radio, no problem there. but if you think is was different before, disconnect from you PC if you have it connected, if not, do a factory reset and try again.

  • @iowahank1
    @iowahank1 9 місяців тому +1

    When I bought the original 857 I got a free DSP unit with it. I just recently acquired a 857D for a great price because of the zebra striped display. Already have an Arduino based external display running and have been able to get a lot of the missing display lines back so it is pretty readable.

    • @TonyAlbus
      @TonyAlbus  9 місяців тому

      Free DSP, that would be great, mine is missing. looked on ebay, seems rare. Still a very nice radio to have.

    If you have a NON-D model but add the DSP board & do the mars mod is it functionally speaking the same as a D model?

    • @TonyAlbus
      @TonyAlbus  11 місяців тому

      More or less yes...but the later revisions have improvements in the front-end and endstage.. that you will not have.. but you will have a nice working DSP radio for sure.

  • @WilliamLaakkonen
    @WilliamLaakkonen 11 місяців тому +1

    Nice video Tony. I have one of the D models in mobile since 2010 or so and still love it. It has had the filter problem, the stripes problem; and now only minro issue is that the VFO sometimes jumps when dialing in the last digits- so seems like the encoder for the wheel is losing sensitivity. So minor that I've not bothered to even look at it. These are good radios. with a long run. Sure wish there was a functional in form factor replacement. Will keep mine until it dies. 73 OM and thanks for sharing your insights.

    in some point in time Yaesu changed the UHF preamp. the one shown has 3 UHF Helix filters. in my unit these filters are missing and the 2 HF preamp filters have variable frequency tuning by diodes.

    I have the original 857, love it! I was going to mount it in my car but after hearing about the issue with the LCD GOING BAD SITTING IN A HOT CAR. I watched an earlier video about an external display and I remember that George from Amature Logic UA-cam channel did a "home build" external display for these radios. They do have a wiki page listing shows and what the shows topic is. I will check my radio to see if the connector and switch is in my version. If so, any idea if Yaesu still offers the board?

      Hi, a great radio. Yes i did a video an a cheaper external display :ua-cam.com/video/ZABdHzgIO_A/v-deo.html
      in the links of this video you also find a link to AliExpress for a replacement display. But if you can spend a bit more have a look at CatMeters.com .. Enjoy! 73 Tony

    Someone here in my area is selling his at a reasonable price with the box and all its accessories, it is tempting but, if the zebra stripes occur later on, I will just be frustrated. Money is not easy to come by in my situation. Thank you so much anyway for sharing this video. 73 and all the best.

    • @TonyAlbus
      @TonyAlbus  9 місяців тому +1

      Hi, yes the Sebras can come, but does not have to be. i heared recently that it happened with temprature changes, so when you have it in a car. So in a home, it good stay good.
      Just keep in mind the radio itself is also old. so other things can happen too. caps, filters etc. if you don't need the power you can also look for a 2nd hand 817 818 or with more power and money for a 991/991A

    Wat een beetje schoonmaken niet kan uitmaken. DNF is je notch filter, ik neem aan dat als je lang drukt je dit kan verschuiven als je DSP had, maar ik ken deze types niet persoonlijk. De DNR functies op oudere transceivers werken wel maar echt verschil maken doet het eigenlijk niet, dat doen de nieuwere types echt beter, dus eigenlijk is geen DSP geen gemis in 99% van de QSO's.

    • @TonyAlbus
      @TonyAlbus  11 місяців тому

      Dank je.. ja de DNR werkt mooi als je bij schikdraad staat ofzo. de Notch heb ik eigelijk pas goed werkend op de FT-dx10 , omdat je gewoon heel goed kan zien wat je doet.. maar dat is echt een hele truken doos. de oudere DSP vindt ik overgins prima op de oude FT-450.. daar zie je ook redelijk goed wat je doet, door de grote display.. maar wat je zegt, uiteindelijk staat het vaak uit op de oudere radios , of erg laag :)
