Yaesu RDF files Page
I like to Travel!
Part of my travel includes Amateur radio. I usually take a handheld or two with me, and I do quite a bit of research and planning. As a result I have set up some useful files for my yaesu handhelds. I have three:
Yaesu FT51r, FT11r and VX1r.
The great thing is you can program them using the ADMS suite, and use one RDF file (radio definition file)
The Vx1 has got the most memories- 291 of them! so I usually fill that up first. I then merge the bits that are relevant into each of the other radios, depending on their capabilities.

What I am doing here is to share those definition files.
Requirements: ADMS 1D software or better.
                        The programming cable (has some electronics inthe cable)
                           A yaesu radio capable of being programmed via ADMS.

    *** FLASH**** - I just got a Yaesu FT-817, so I needed a portable HF antenna.
    First my good friend VK2KGG sent me a design for a 20m Dipole made from TV ribbon, plus a simple balun. I made it and used it. It's very good!
    And then I ordered an ATX-Walkabout 80m to 6m vertical from Waters & Stanton in England. I'll let you know how things go after it arrives..
