Will the RRC-1258MkIIs work with a Yaesu FT857D
« on: 2021-04-09, 04:36:48 »
I have a Yaesu FT857D that I would like to remote. I want to verify that this rig is compatible before purchasing the RRC-1258MkIIs. If so, how's the audio quality? Do the head controls respond quicky? Does it have to be a V7 model? What  vendor do you recommend. Any advise will be appreciated.

ND9B again, I just saw on Microbit's web page they have a  model called "Remoting 1258 MkIIs FT857". Is this just a standard "RRC-1258 MkIIs" pre-modified for the FT857?  Is anyone using this with the Yaesu FT857D?

The RemoteRig system works very well with the FT857D, in case you were still waiting for an answer. I have such a setup myself, and also support a ham friend with similar setup.
