Yaesu FT-101EX SSB Transceiver
Yaesu FT-101EX SSB Transceiver
Process:
All parts are built with combined 3d tools like Bryce, Vue and Daz Studio. Then I transferred all parts in OBJ and put the model together in Daz Studio. The textures are made in Photoshop and then transferred to all parts in Daz Studio.
About:
The Yaesu FT-101EX is a classic, hybrid-design amateur radio SSB transceiver from the 1970s/80s, known for its solid-state circuits (except tube finals) and rugged build, offering 160-10 meter coverage in USB/LSB/CW/AM, high PEP output (around 260W), and modular design for easy maintenance, making it a beloved vintage rig for its performance and unique operating feel, though requiring proper tuning.
Yaesu FT-101 is a model line of modular amateur radio transceivers, built by the Yaesu Corporation in Japan during the 1970s and 1980s. FT-101 is a set that combines a solid state transmitter, receiver and a tube final amplifier. Its solid state features offer high-performance, low-current characteristics and its tube amplifier provides an almost mismatch-resistant transmitter and tuner stage. FT-101s were made with plug-in circuit boards that could be sent to the dealer or factory for replacement or repair. Until then, modular design was unprecedented in the amateur community. This also explains the fact why so many FT-101s are still in use today. The rig was sold worldwide as Yaesu FT-101 and in Europe as Yaesu FT-101 and as Sommerkamp FT-277. Because of its reliability it earned its nickname "the workhorse"
Key Characteristics:
- Hybrid Design: Primarily solid-state with vacuum tubes in the final amplifier stage, offering low current draw but robust output.
- Bands: Covers 160 through 10 meters (all amateur bands).
- Modes: SSB (USB/LSB), CW, and AM.
- Power: High input power (around 260W PEP SSB, 180W CW).
- Modularity: Features plug-in circuit boards for simplified repairs.
- Versatile Power: Operates from 12V DC (mobile) or 100-234V AC (fixed) with appropriate cords/wiring
