IC-PAC - LDG - Control cable for ICOM - Provides DC power and control between ICOM radios and LDG generic autotuners. 1 foot long.

Description:
The IC-PAC and interface cable provides DC power and control between the radio and the autotuner. 1 foot long.

Supported Radios:
IC-7000, IC-7600, IC-7100, IC-7200, IC-7300, IC-706, IC-707, IC-718, IC-725, IC-728, IC-736, IC-738, IC-746, IC-756.
This interface cable will work with any Icom radio that supports the Icom AH-3 or AH-4 Tuner. Please check your radio's manual.

Functionality:
Pressing the tune button quickly on the tuner by-passes the tuner. Pressing and holding the tune button on the radio or tuner starts the tune process. 

Note:
If you are using this cable with the IC-718, be sure to set the tuner menu to "4". The LDG tuner and interface cable emulates the Icom-AH-4 tuner.

IC-1+AC1 - LDG - Control cable for ICOM radios and non-specific LDG tuners - Lenght: m 3.20

Like IC-PAC, but longer

These cables are used to power non-specific LDG tuners directly from the radio, as well as to control them using the TUNE button on the device. Thanks to their considerable length, they are well suited for installations on mobile vehicles.
The supported radios are: IC-706, IC-707, IC-718, IC-725, IC-728, IC-736, IC-738, IC-746, IC-756, IC-765 and all other devices that support ICOM AH-3 and AH-4 tuners.

Note: Colors and aesthetic shape may vary from the photo.

Y-ACC - LDG - Control Cable for LDG tuners and compatible YAESU Radios: FT-857(D), FT-897(D), FT-100, FT-100(D), FT-991(A) and FT-891. 

Description:
Interface cable between the select Yaesu radios and LDG Generic tuners. Does not supply DC to tuner. Connects between the ALC/REM or ACC stereo jack on the radio and the Radio Interface on the LDG tuner. 
   
Compatible Radios:
FT-857(D), FT-897(D), FT-100, FT-100(D), FT-991(A) and FT-891. 

Functionality:
Connect red end to radio, black end to tuner.  

Pressing the tune button on the tuner changes the mode of the radio to CW (mode change does not appear on some radio display), tunes, then returns the radio to the previous mode. The RF power is lowered while the tuner is tuning. There is no need to change RF power settings before or after tuning.

For FT-991(A), set menu item 143 (Tuner Select) to LAMP (for Linear Amp). For FT-891 set menu item 16-15 (Tuner Select) to LAMP. For both use the ALC/REM jack (red end of the Y-ACC cable goes to the radio).

FT-METER - LDG - Meter for Yaesu FT-857/897

Yaesu's popular FT-857(D) and FT-897(D) transceivers are wonders of compact efficiency. These do-anything, go-anywhere transceivers were science fiction just a few years ago, but ham's today are using them in shacks, mobiles and on dxpeditions from the back yard to the top of the world. 

About the only problem with these radios is that us hams who are old enough to remember when stuff like this really was science fiction are also old enough to wish that the display was just little bit bigger. As we grow in wisdom and experience, we also grow to depend on bifocals; those tiny little screens are just plain hard to read! Add to that a strong desire to see a real live meter needle bouncing on voice peaks, and you find yourself wishing Yaesu had thought all this through when they designed the radio. 

Well, in fact they did. A little known feature of these radios, noticed only by compulsive manual readers, is a meter jack on the bottom of the front panel. You have to figure that Yaesu knew they needed a bigger display all along, but just left it as an exercise for the user. Well, help is here! The LDG FT-Meter is a low-cost, plug-and-play solution to all your FT metering needs. 

The FT-Meter presents a lush, highly readable 2.5" meter face with calibrated scales for signal strength and discriminator reading on receive, and power output, SWR, modulation, ALC action and supply voltage on transmit. Each function is selectable from the radio's menu. Easily visible from anywhere on your desk or dash, the FT-Meter is illuminated by any external 12 vdc source. The FT-Meter comes fully assembled and ready to go; just plug it into the radio and you're in the picture like never before. Order yours today.
