FT-8000R
 

Looking for a schematic and parts placement diagram for the control head.
The 440 volume & squelch pots have broken the traces on the main board
at the connector. Can anyone help?? Please respond direct.
Thanks,
Jim, WA1GPO

HI, I'll get back to you later, late for work.
Man, it took me 4 hours to repair mine. VERY tiny work.
TINY soldering iron needed, and a LARGE magnifying glass and a steady hand.
Also, you will need some wire wrap wire, very thin.
VERY BAD design on Yaesu's part. SHAME ON THEM!!!!!
I'm using mine as a base and not mobile. Not sure if I can trust it in a
bouncing car.
Works fine as a base.
