If you have a \nvoltage source plugged in, it will do 5 watts. However, the supplied \npower pack will still only give about 3 - 3.5 volts due to the load.\n\nMy old FT-817 (16 years old), finally died with the known final s \nshorted. It went so bad, that it fried the driver PC board as well. \nSince it cost almost half the value of the unit to replace3 the PC \nboard, I bought a newer FT-817ND unit which contains the 60 meter \nvalues, and the newer type of finals to prevent the previously mentioned \nproblem.\n\nRegards,\n\nReid, W4UPD\n\n\nOn 11/24/2016 8:40 AM, Norm n3ykf wrote:\n> 5W is the spec for external power. 2.5? on internal battery.\n>\n> On Thu, Nov 24, 2016 at 8:35 AM, jeffory broughton\n> <[email protected]> wrote:\n>> Has anyone ever taken time to actually measure the tx power on vhf and uhf\n>> of the FT -817 ?
