As someone who's spent 25 years doing component level troubleshooting (and more years as a ham radio hobbyist), I can say that you did some really good detective work.

Your English is so crisp and precise that your videos are fully watchable at 2X real time, with no loss of comprehension. Very nice.

Thank You for this absolute great lesson. I don´t have this problem in my Yaesu FT-1000MP MARK-V Field yet, but when it will came I just know what to do. All the best 73 to You!

Very nice demostration of your troubleshooting skills Peter. I enjoy these type of videos. thanks for sharing and 73

Thanks again Peter for your great work! It's truly appreciated! You're a natural teacher.

Another awesome diagnosis and repair Peter. Thanks for the video. I do have to say that you are a much braver man than I am seeing you resting the corner of that heat sink with the fins hovering over the top of the speaker cone like that. 😲

Another great video Peter. Its great to see you back making video's this year. 73s Ian M5AXA

This is the second time i have seen you replace this diode on the same radio all be it quite a few years back .Thanks for sharing.

Another great repair, Peter. I learn something new every time i look at your videos. I am impressed to see how you can find these broken parts in the radio. /3 Asle

Another successful operation from the radio surgeon. Beautiful out come on a very odd problem!

The ft1000mp was my first big step in repair radios. Could follow you easily this time. Thanks for sharing it inspiring me every time again to do more repairs.

Great job Peter. I have had the same issue in a IC-756PRO3, warn PA unit in RX with bias in as well. It was a leakage voltage in RX/TX switch stage.Thanks for another great video, stay safe my dear friend. 73s Pasquale IW0HEX

Another great video, Peter. I have found that most hams dabble somewhat in electronics. I guess it's just part of ham radio. But most hams cannot repair their own radios unless they are a working technician. Your troubleshooting techniques are par to none. You always seem to go to the correct spot for testing. 73 from W Rusty Lane K9POW in eastern Tennessee

Another great fault finding diagnosis and repair...... your a wizard...... are you sure you don't want to move to New Zealand haha...... not much covid and lots of radios to repair hahaha....... awesome video Peter , I so enjoy your repairs, reviews, and also all the tips and tricks , and lets not forget the great balun series..... Thank you , you are a great blessing to the ham radio community .

Man you are definitely good at finding the little things that drive most of us crazy. Definitely lean more every time I watch. This is the 3ed time I've watched an leaned something new. Keep up the great work 👍👍👍

I love your explanations you are a very good teacher. I bet a lot of students could learn a lot from you. Great job as always.

Really appreciate you explaining your process and taking the time to take us along and make a video. Thanks!

What a jolly chap. God bless you sir.

Really enjoy your explanations & troubleshooting methodology. Thanks for sharing!

Excellent repair video as always Peter. Enjoyed the diagnosis.

Wow Peter, your troubleshooting technique is superb. Nice job on finding the defective diode.

Bravo Peter,.. Saving another Classic Superhet,..😊

Peter ROCKS... 👍👍👍

I'm watching you from Friedrichshafen today (on holiday) instead of the UK. Rod G8DGR

Interesting to watch. One small component can cause so much trouble.

Hi Peter, Nice find of the defective diode. The radio now works normally. Stay safe. 73 WJ3U

I had one of these FT-1000 Mark-V a few years ago, nice radio with lots of features...

Nice repair and amazing analysis Peter ! I like so much your technich. 73's and congrats !

I saw a very easy explanation and great skills! It would be very helpful as 1 have the same model.

Thank you for another very clearly explained video, you make it seem easy. Your are great teacher regards Mike G4VQH

Nice vid, Peter. Hope you are doing fine. I had a backlog in watching your videos, but now i am up to date. FT-1000 is always complex to work on, but worth it to save a good radio. So thanks once again for your good work. 73 de Olaf, hab eine gute Zeit!

Great job Peter, but you made me nervous putting the big heatsink so close to the speaker! Cheers G4XCQ

Bravo Peter, thanks for sharing !

Thanks Peter, I've stored that bit of info in my kit bag for future troubleshooting! 73 - Dino KLØS

Thanks for posting Peter another great video thank you

good job as always ... 73s de DL6RDE / AA1KD, Charlie

Excellent work Peter :-))

another great video from the master!!

Why is the TX LED on in RX mode?

Another great video. There's no way I could have fixed this :(

Good luck on repairing the yaesu 1000 Radio from paul chapman

Great Video - sehr informativ! Danke Peter!

Your troubleshooting skills and explanations are outstanding. Well done video! Thanks Peter 73 Kb7ici

put an MI301 PIN diode instead of the original diode. yes it's a bit more expensive but you'll never have problem with that circuit again.

Hi Peter. Have been following your videos for sometime. I plan on getting into the radio restoration and repair aspect. Could you please post more videos on what type of test equipment you would need to repair and restore both tube and S/S radios, and how they interact with each other. Thanks Hart va3kis.

So those built in self biased transistors are digital switches? I always wondered about them. Thanks for the Saturday repair download Peter. Have a great weekend.

Had me a Yaesu 757gxII had receive issues and such. Was leaky diodes. Put me in some 1N4148 and fix it good. Did you use Genuine replacements or did you use some equivalent for the diode? Good video.

tnx for nice video.

Love to send you my MK2G. Works for 10 min. Then we only have 160. Probably relaying. I Can't see that well or I'd go for it. Be nice to be able to get a New relay board but I'm sure know one makes them.

Peter all your videos are great. The earlier ones on Baluns in (4 parts a few years back) were extremely good and fundemental. You did one 6 months ago on replacing the Icom7300 final mosfets. I just wondered where you got those from? I only ask because other than eBay (hmm) I am struggling to find them. David

Hi can I ask why the red TX led is staying lit when the radio goes back in to receive. Many thanks 👍

39.9 of Celsius is really high fever... please help me dr Peter ;)

thanks peter great info 73s de mi0??? hi hi

Great informative video as always Nice to see you Peter. Thanks for sharing you knowledge with us 73 de kc9nuw

Hi Peter great video as always I have a radio I would like to have repaired can you advise on how to get in touch please I am based in the UK and would like to ship to you Kind regards Craig

new to your channel and must say the info helps me understand stuff better. sorry to peter but i am trying to reach out to anybody who can help me i have a old icom ic-726 and the display has gone and was wondering if any one has a old radio about them spares or repair or be able to point me in the right direction to get one. (uk based) thanks

😃👍

Where could I find the test leads/probes you used Peter?

hi I was going through your channel I came cross this video, I have FT-2000 with very odd behavior which I cant describe, how can I share you the video's of my radio behavior? so if you can help me to solve it.

Where did you buy the alligator probe clip at 16:12?

My FT1000MP MK5 frequency display is sometimes slow to appear when first powered on, any ideas Peter ?

Make a video about pc RLC meter sound card !!!.

IS THERE AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE 1N4008 I CANNOT FIND ANY ALT ALL IN THE UK

Hallo Peter; Können Sie mir eine Referenz für ein magnetisches Induktionsglaselement geben, um das Element im REED RL6414-Relais zu ersetzen. Ist 10 x 14 mm in Ordnung? Danke im Voraus 73's SEB

ERSTEEEEER

What is your callsing ? De VU2TJF
