[1000mp] Success

[www.signtosign.co.uk signs and badges ZULU RADIO]

Has anyone ever used a transverter on the mark 5 fields other than the designed one. I have one from a YAESU FT-107M line up.
 So that makes it an FTV-107R with 2m and 70cm modules in it .
If anyone would have any information and help i would be happy to give it a try.
Best regards m0zol
