Doesn't Fit FT1-DR
1 of 3 found this helpful Does Not Fit the Yaesu-FT1-DR. Complete waste of money.

Perfect for Protecting SDRs
The relay itself: As pictured, good used condition, works perfectly, obvious how to hook up. I used the existing wire ends to solder to.
Most hams have 12v in the shack, so this 12v relay was perfect for protecting the front end of my SDRs when my radio goes into transmit. I have it set up so in the normally open condition, it passes the the signal from my Kenwood TS-590sg antenna splitter output. to the SDR. When the Kenwood transmits, I use the TS-590sg's amp keying to key this relay, which in the energized position goes to a 50 Ohm termination,
Any I time I tx, there is a 50 ohm resistor to ground on the SDRs.
I haeve two SDRs and can use a 2nd relay to to switch the antenna from tje Kenwood to either of the SDRs. I use one SDR for 6m and the other for HF.

Good Construction and Performance
Construction is solid, parts fit as needed. Tuned up as it should. While it is stated that it is rated at 500W PEP, feeding it 200W continuous watts for 15 seconds did show an increasing VSWR. Transmitting was immediately terminated so the antenna would not be damaged.
Radiating wise, very good. I run it as an elevated ground plane with 80w at a height of 7' with 4 elevated/tuned radials. It's performance on FT8 digital mode has been excellent. Europe and Pacific worked easily.
