Thanks Jez. Perfect instructions. And for those who are moaning about Jez talking too fast, you do have an option in your youtube settings to play the video slower.
My story is very similar to the one by Ken G4KII ... your video was very useful after having struggled a few days trying to work it out myself. A BIG thumbs up 🙂
Mny Tnx for the excellent video. It has been 40 years since my last QSO and I’m re-entering the hobby slowly via VHF & UHF bands. Your guidance helped me through the programming of my local repeaters (GB3BM & GB3CB) into my tiny FT-4X; equipment in these areas have changed enormously and the little handbook supplied is quite ambiguous in places. So once again, thank you…back to the SWbands soon. Ken G4KII.
Top man Jez, I had trouble with the R/T under squelch tone - I didn't look at the manual, I suppose I should do sometimes haha. Thanks for the video mate, all the best - stay safe, 73'
I'm new to HAM , got bored of CB, just waiting for the new syllabus get sorted to book my Foundation license. In the case of leaving ARS ON would it not find the settings automatically, split freq., shift, and CTCSS tone? But then would ARS only kick in when the repeater is at the device reach? Is that the idea? Thanks for the explanations.
After I've stored a memory, how can I examine that memory for the repeater's frequency? CHIRP uses the call sign as the tag, but there are multiple repeaters with the same call sign but different frequencies. I want to examine one of them to see what frequency it's using.
Why does this radio autofill the last digit at 5? I keep trying to enter a frequency that ends in .820 and the damn thing just keeps autofilling it as .825. Very annoying.
Thanks for this information but when I get to Txmit after 38 my display shows "Error". what am I missing please? Incidentally, I have Reset the device so as to provide a clear run but still get his problem which is very frustrating to say the least. My FT4XE is close to going out of the window.
Hi Jez, can you help me I can't seem to program the TX/OUTPUT (from 157030) to 154110........ ???? I don't know how? I can however TX to 154105 instead, I don't understand? Does anybody experience the same? Thanks!

Great video (again) Jez... Tell me, do you have a pref when it comes to SWR HF/V/UHF ?meters. Since I have always used walkies (cos I live in a flat 11 floors up) I wanted to get something rigged antenna wise and get a good SWR meter !
My UHF/VHF antenna is setup by the factory so no SWR adjustments needed. if I use a HF antenna (AMPRO) and use it from the bike which has a ground plane and the swr is low. Ive got a SX20 SWR meter and a Nissell meter for 2/70
Thanks for the video but sadly the radio won't except the selection on setting 38 (tone setting) I can set the frequency but it won't select the T option. It always defaults to R which is frustrating. Any ideas? Thanks
Easy to programme but why is the menu button on the side easier on the front ⭐⭐ for that .Yaesu trying to compete with Chinese HTs they have been ripping people off for years, made in China anyway a HTonly worth £30 the most and they are not unlocked for use on 446 like our well loved Chinese HT ⭐⭐⭐ a £ shop HT
Most of us wanting to know how to do something don't actually know how in the first place. So your racing through to get demonstration isn't teaching any of us doodly squat
Thanks. I had no stored frequencies for a while. Happily I watched this.
Thanks Jez. Perfect instructions. And for those who are moaning about Jez talking too fast, you do have an option in your youtube settings to play the video slower.
Thanks, this made this so easy as the manual was a bit sparse in this area

Huh, I didn't know I had to set Option 38 from R to T. Couldn't figure out why my radio wouldn't transmit :(
Its working now! Thanks, great video :)

Cheers. Struggled to enter the Tone this has solved the problem. Thanks
Glad it helped
Great video . I like this nifty little radio .
This is a NICLY DONE video. Thank you. 😃
Just received said radio and this vid makes programming repeaters so easy thanks nice one
No worries glad it helped
I must be a complete idiot! Help please
How would I put in 444.175 for the frequency and 712 for the sub tone or whatever it's called.
@@jonburrows2684 The offset?
@@2j4ez I have the FT-65R and have saved the frequencies to mass memory how do you save them to the memory bank etc?
Top man Jez, I had trouble with the R/T under squelch tone - I didn't look at the manual, I suppose I should do sometimes haha. Thanks for the video mate, all the best - stay safe, 73'
Thank you very got my radio going
What part did you put the 8.2 tone
on?
The 82.5 is used to access the repeater if you don't put it in you wont be able to access the repeater

Thanks for the tutorial, just got our local repeaters programmed.

I found this useful, thank you
After I've stored a memory, how can I examine that memory for the repeater's frequency?
CHIRP uses the call sign as the tag, but there are multiple repeaters with the same call sign but different frequencies. I want to examine one of them to see what frequency it's using.
I figured it out: Select that memory slot, then press "#Band". The frequency will appear. Press "#Band" again to show the tag.
How do you program simplex Repeaters and simplex channels in this radio thank you
I’m trying to program mine without the cable 446.3975 the pmr channel 8 but I can’t change offset and it goes to 446.0875. Please help
Why does this radio autofill the last digit at 5? I keep trying to enter a frequency that ends in .820 and the damn thing just keeps autofilling it as .825. Very annoying.
just had a quick read of the manual try menu no 37 to change the tuning steps
@@2j4ez God damn, you are the man. That solved the issue-- thank you so much. I really love how helpful this community is. Your channel is fantastic.

Error normally means your trying to tx out of band . Do you mean 38 memory’s?
Thanks for the quick response. Will look again and hope to cure my problem.

Ok I got it programmed in.whos channel is it? How can we listen to transmissions from it?
Yes you can listen to transmissions from it.if your a licensed ham you can transmit on it and speak to other hams
