Nice step-by-step runthrough there m8 - tnx for sharing. I'll get my FT-991 on tuesday march 27th. Can't wait :) I also need to do this firmware update then.
Hi Arnt glad you enjoyed the video Yes the FT991 is a great radio, hope you enjoy yours and yes keep the firmware up to date to get the best out of the radio
Yes I will update it. It looks like I'll aleady have it tomorrow. I guess it'll be an unboxing video from me then. I also get the other stuff I purchased online tomorrow, so I am going to get bussy :) heehe!
I believe it's never a good idea to use old settings (backup) with updated firmware because the old settings can corrupt new features. Every firmware update should be followed by a fresh start in programming your device, then do a backup. The backups can then be used within the same firmware versions.
Thanks for the video. Can you do a follow-up video with the new features like the coloured waterfall? I am still considering purchasing the FT-991 even though it's update the FT -991A is ready to order so I'm hoping the update also gives the 'real time sweep'.
Hi someone else has done a video showing the water fall have a look but don't forget that with just the ft991 you wont get any audio on full waterfall on the FT991A you will so yaesu say , ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mk2VKy7juyc.html
