Re: Re: Motorola MRF 1570

Oh no. Not at all.   😉

It means  that mine is on its way  being rebuilt.

I am looking to  replace some Ft857s  with the Ft100s.


If i  can only run  5 W on VHF or  UHF  w/o that PA  device ,  I would be happy .

😉

Hi Keith.
I am also looking for one.
last week  I had my  Ft100 on teh bench , to see that it was drawing  4.5 amps  while  in RX mode.
I  removed the  MRF1570     from teh radio,, and  measured the RX  current to be  normal again at 1 amp.
That says it all,  the  device  was shorted.

Good luck with your's.

Hello guys,

Does anyone know where I can purchase a genuine Motorola one?

They seem to be easy to obtain from China… But I do not trust that source,

I am looking for a full spec genuine one.

Thanks
