Thanks for peeling the plastic at the end! You were starting to trigger my OCD.

@hamradiotube 5 месяцев назад

Haha! I've had this radio for like 2 weeks now and I've been waiting to film the peeling of the plastic!

I used to not peel off the plastic until it was falling off. Not sure why I used to do it.

I have an FT 891, ftm 200, two mics and speaker mounted on their heavy duty console cup holder mount. Great products and very reasonably priced! Can be easily modified to your specific needs with a drill and drill bit.

@TWX1138 5 месяцев назад

I looked at the Lido stuff for my FTM-500 but I ended up just buying the clone of the YSK-7800 bracket that's available from many sources. It doesn't stick out as far from the base as the Lido ball mount does, which I needed because the head itself sticks out so far. The genuine article bracket was for the FT-7800 and FT-7900 and it snaps on to the FTM-500 directly. I did test it and with some trimming it should work on the FTM-300 and FTM-200 as well. The YSK-7800 clone bracket has one real advantage, it's cheap enough that multiple can be used to allow the radio control head to be installed in several possible places, so if one is moving a radio from vehicle to vehicle or vehicle to house, or vehicle to travel trailer fairly inexpensively. Since the FTM-500 uses a speaker in the head and the handmic can plug into the head, it's just a matter of running an 8-pin cable with 8P8C plugs from the control head mounting position to the radio body mounting position.

@jeffreyrichard9675 5 месяцев назад

The lido stuff looks cool and seems to work well except the pole that bolts to the seat. My old Ram mount pole was like that. Too shaky for my ocd and eyes while driving. If you ever looking for a rock solid alternative, Havis makes a laptop stand that has zero play. You could mount all the lido stuff to the Havis upright without the laptop holder. Might be able to get one suplus cheap since they are in every cop car and get tossed when they upgrade cars.

@hamradiotube 5 месяцев назад

It's actually pretty darn rock solid when driving. The only time you're going to get much movement is when you man handle the buttons the way I do. Movement has never been an issue.

Super rigid bar mount? Looks like it shakes around way to much as you demonstrated in this video

@hamradiotube 5 месяцев назад

It really doesn't shake around nearly as much as in the video. It's pretty solid. Keep in mind, it's only supported at the bottom so it's going to wobble a little bit, but when you're driving it hardly moves. Mashing the buttons like I do will make it wobble but other than that, it's pretty darn sturdy.

This is cool but I still feel sorry for front seat passengers in most mobile ham setups.

Hey 👋 can you please make a video discussing how many different repeater modes there are meaning digital and analog and so forth? I’m trying to buy different radios that will cover all the frequencies bands and I want to be on all the different repeaters modes as well. This is going to be a mobile set and a base station setup so I can operate all the different modes in the car and the house. If you have a email address I can send this topic in for a video topic that would be great 👍 Thank you. Love your channel.

@globetrottermike3262 5 месяцев назад

hi mike, why don't you take the bottom front mic holder off and replace it with a little flat iron bar , paint it black and install both mic holder beside each other , doesn't look so clustered , you may have do drill some holes but who cares. any way 73 VA6OLD

@1crazynordlander 5 месяцев назад

Jim at Lido mounts sent me a double microphone mount that has the clamp like yours for my FTM-400/FT-891 setup. I was able to utilize the factory Yaesu head mounts by trimming some metal from the HF head mount so I could access the top buttons on my FT-891. I might get the head mounts like you have though and change it up a bit. Yaesu needed to do a redesign on their radios to get the microphone jack into the head like the ICOM IC- 7100. At least the audio jack is in the FT-891 head. Likewise ICOM doesn’t need to be stingy and include the radio body bracket with their radios.

@dpsflyboy Месяц назад

Hey Mike. I got the same mic mounts from Lido with the 3M pad to stick onto my dash so there wouldn't be any holes. They didn't work and would sag and then come off. He sent another set with the same results even after I cleaned the stick point with alcohol. I was watching you stick it to the square Lido mount using the 3M pad because they wouldn't line up horizontally with the holes. Then the thought came to me, since the square mount is on a ball fixed mount, mount the mic holder diagonally from corner to corner and just turn the square mount on the ball mount so the mic holder is horizontal. I checked if the holes would line up that way with some extra Lido mounts I have and they do. That way, you have a solidly mounted mic holder with screws instead of the not so good 3M pads. Just a thought. I have a 2014 Explorer also. Show where you have the body of the radios mounted please.

@hamradiotube Месяц назад

That would work for people without OCD I suppose lol! I have done a video showing where I mounted the radios but I've since just put them under the front seats. I prob did a video showing that too but I don't remember which one. I just put them under the seats. No holes, no drilling, nothing.

Have Lido's between the seat mount. Works well. If my wife is driving I can just loosen the top pivot and rotate the display to the passenger seat for comfortable viewing.

@douglasvamateurradioandmore 5 месяцев назад

I may do this myself. If i didn't know better, i would think that you're becoming a yaesu fanboy.

@hamradiotube 5 месяцев назад

Oh no, I promise you that is not happening. Historically I've been pretty hard on Yaesu for their incompetence. The 300 pretty much puts the nail in the coffin.

@tomrut3653 5 месяцев назад

Nice setup, not sure why they don’t put a mic input on the radio head, the iCOM 7100 does have it.

@hamradiotube 5 месяцев назад

Because Yaesu hires the dumbest engineers in the world and they brainstorm the dumbest ways to design a radio. Worst ideas win. I wanted the 300 for a while but after owning it for a few weeks, I've shaken my head more times than I can count at the sheer stupidity of some of the things they did with this radio. But...they did put a mic input in the head. You wanna know what it is? It's the 20+ year old Mini USB connector on the head. You can use their USB camera mic there. So when you're driving down the road at 90MPH and you want to take a really low Rez pic and fumble through 20 different menus while driving to send it, you can. 🤦‍♂️ There's also another Mini USB on the body of the radio, and it comes with a cable too. Are either of these USB's for programming the radio? Nope. The one on the body is for firmware updates, which will most likely never happen. To program the radio you need to have a 10 pin din connector that plugs in the back. Or you can use the Micro SD card that is also on the head and how I programmed it. I can go on and on, but I'm going to make a video about all the stupid things instead.
