“The 16th West Japan Ham Fair” sponsored by JARL Kyushu Regional Headquarters was held at the gymnasium and guest hall of Nissan Motor Kyushu Co., Ltd. in Kanda-cho, Kyoto-gun, Fukuoka Prefecture on March 5, 2017, and the 2,000 It crowded with visitors.
First let’s introduce the new products that manufacturers first introduced. Yaesu Radio displays FM repeater ” DR-1XJ ” in the 430 MHz band. I also wanted to check it because I took a picture of the back. Icom also exhibited the D-STAR
compatible mobile machine “ID – 4100” in the 144/430 MHz band. The display can switch colors to green / amber / blue. Also, the reception frequency range you are interested in is FM / FM-N / DV between 137 and 174 MHz and 230 to 550 MHz (excluding some frequency bands). It was also found that AM ranged from 118 to 137 MHz (this range also corresponds to AM-N) and 230 to 375 MHz
430 MHz band FM repeater “DR – 1 XJ” which Yaesu Railway conducted for the first time at the venue”
