YAESU FTM-300DE

C4FM/FM 144/430MHz Dual Band Digital Mobile Transceiver FTM-300DR/E.

The new FTM-300DR/E provides stable and reliable SOW RF power output. As in recent YAESU mobile
transceivers, the FTM-300DR/E is also equipped with a heavy-duty heat sink that includes our exclusive FACC

Real Dual Band Operation (V+V, U+U, V+U, U+V) is available with two independent receivers, and the FTM-
300DR/E supports simultaneous C4FM digital monitoring for both the A and B bands.

2-inch High-Resolution QVGA Fuii-Color TFT Display clearly highlights the frequency and operation bands.
With the Band Scope Function, users can monitor up to 63 channels centered around the current VFO frequency
in real time. (21 channels in memory channel mode)

Memory Channel Band Auto Grouping (MBAG) is one of the advanced features of the FTM-300DR. Memory channels are automatically categorized in each band, and memory channels can be easily and quickly recalled by 4 Band Groups – Airband(M-AIR), VHF(M-VHF), UHF(M-UHF) and 174-400MHz/ 480-999.99MHz (M-GEN).

3W audio power speaker ensures a clear and crisp audio – that has been specifically tuned for quality audio. Two individual external speaker jacks are provided. Users can output the VFO A and B band Receiver to separate speakers or mix A and B signals when a single external speaker is used.

Built-in Bluetooth unit is installed in the FTM-300DR. This enables the hands-free operation with the YAESU SSMBT10 or a commercially available product. The SSM-BT10 is equipped with a PTT button and also supports VOX operation. Using the new USB charger cable – SCU-41 with the controller of the FTM-300DR, the SSM-BT10 can be easily charged. The SSM-BT10 works for approximately 20 hours on single charge.

The FTM-300DR supports both the WiRES-X Portable Digital Node function and Fixed Node function with the HRI-200. Since simultaneous C4FM monitoring on both VFO A and VFO B is possible, users can enjoy both WiRES-X communications on one channel while monitoring another local channel at the same time.

Other advanced features of the new FTM-300DR include

DG-ID (Digital ID)
Group Monitor
Positional awareness from the built-in 66ch High Sensitivity GPS receiver enabling Real Time Navigation
Backtrack feature
A GPS Terminal for an external GPS receiver
1200/ 9600 ARRS data modem for ARRS mode
Voice Recording of both Received and Transmitted audio
Save and load data including configuration and memory channel information to a micro SD card
Snapshot function using the optional MH-85A11U camera microphone

Yaesu FTM100DE APRS C4FM Transceiver

The FTM-100DE incorporates a wide range of System Fusion and analogue features with the Single Feature Design equipped with a Dot-Matrix Display.  The newly designed display of the FTM-100DE is a very compact, vibrant and highly visible White-LED backlit display (160×40 Full Dot-Matrix) and includes a bright multi-coloured Mode/Status Indicator on its faceplate.  This Indicator is a very useful feature that visibly and clearly informs the operator of the state of the transceiver.  For instance, it indicates what mode the radio is in by changing from Green (Analogue) to Blue (Digital) when receiving a signal, and the operator can easily recognize what signal is being received at a glance!

The FTM-100DE utilizes Automatic Mode Select (AMS), which is one of the most distinguishing features of System Fusion that instantly recognizes whether a transmission is analogue or digital and appropriately switches the operating modes to allow flawless co-existence of both analogue and digital communication.  In addition to AMS, the following attractive features are available with the FTM-100DE which should satisfy and fit most amateur radio operator’s needs, such as Smart Navigation, Digital Group Monitor (GM) featuring telemetry data and ID transmission, WIRES-X, a full featured 1200/9600bps APRS system, a built-in high sensitivity 66 channel GPS Antenna, GPS logging capability, voice guide and recording function, micro SD card slot (for both programming and data storage), and Bluetooth hands-free operation.

Thanks to all the above carefully selected feature configurations, the FTM-100DE is at a very attractive price point and will be widely spread as an ideal communication product among both entry level and advanced ham radio enthusiasts.

Beyond FT8 – That would be FT4

AS RELEASED by Dr JH Taylor K1JT and Team, Steve (K9AN), and Bill (G4WJS) https://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/…http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k… “Soon after the “FT8 Roundup” held on December 1-2, 2018, we started serious work on a faster, more contest-friendly digital mode that can compete with RTTY-contesting QSO rates while preserving many of the benefits of FT8. The result is FT4 — a new digital mode specifically designed for radio contesting. Over the past month a small group of volunteers have been conducting on-the-air tests of FT4. The early tests were very successful and helped us to make a number of important design decisions. We believe FT4 has considerable promise for its intended purpose. We’ll soon be ready for testing by a larger group. If you might be interested in participating and offering your considered feedback, please read the descriptive document “The FT4 Protocol for Digital Contesting”, posted here: http://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/k… We plan to post downloadable installation packages for WSJT-X 2.1.0-rc5 on April 29, one week from today. The document linked above includes – Instructions for installing WSJT-X 2.1.0-rc5 and FT4 configuration – Operating instructions for FT4 – Basic description of the FT4 protocol, modulation, and waveform – Detailed sensitivity measurements for FT4 under a wide variety of simulated propagation conditions – Schedule for upcoming test sessions Please consider helping us to make FT4 a successful mode for digital contesting With best wishes and 73, — Joe (K1JT), Steve (K9AN), and Bill (G4WJS)”
