Ideal replacement
My original paper coned speaker had deteriorated, partly through getting wet, and this replacement works well. I carefully removed the rubber gasket from the old speaker, using a craft knife, to re-use. With this, the new speaker fits perfectly.

FT817 Loudspeaker
Regret loudspeaker does not sound right. I think due to not being securely clamped, should be supplied with new O rings.

Replacement FT817 Speaker
Much better than original speaker, a bit tricky to fit in conjunction with Sotabeams filter mod. But with a bit of care and measuring and hot melt glue it fits just fine. Great mod.

Excellent speaker
Received the speaker well packed. Replaced it in about 10 minutes. It was the most easy mod for my FT-817. Speaker sounds good. Quality is better as the original one and it is humidity resistant which is important when using the radio in the field.

Replacement speaker for FT817nd.
After the original speaker in my FT817nd recently failed I was very pleased to see that Sotabeams had released a Mylar cone speaker to suit the'817. I have had previous experience with Mylar cone speakers in my working life. I ordered 1 & received it quite quickly. The replacement process was quick & painless as the speaker was a perfect fit. When I switched the radio on I was rewarded with much better audio & again I am satisfied with my Sotabeams deal. Les, VK5KLV.
