S-Meter, thus reduc- ing guesswork in setting the squelch threshold. Congratulations on your purchase of the FTM-3200DR! Whether this is your first rig, or if Yaesu equipment is already the backbone of your station, the Yaesu organization is com- mitted to ensuring your enjoyment of this high-performance transceiver.
Installation Connecting the Microphone Connect the supplied MH-48A6JA microphone to the FTM-3200DR. Plug the microphone connector into the MIC jack on the front panel until it clicks. Note: When disconnecting the microphone, pull the cable while pressing the connector latch.
Installation Mobile Installation The FTM-3200DR must only be installed in vehicles having a 13.8 Volt negative ground electrical system. Mount the transceiver where the display, controls, and microphone are easily accessible, using the supplied mounting bracket. The transceiver may be installed in almost any location, but should not be positioned near a heating vent nor anywhere where it might interfere with driving (either visually or mechanically).
Warning! Never apply AC power to the power cable of the FTM-3200DR, nor DC voltage greater than 15.8 Volts. When replacing the fuse, only use a 25-A fuse. Failure to observe these safety precautions will void the Limited Warranty on this product.
Installation Base Station Installation The FTM-3200DR is ideal for base station use as well as in mobile installations. The FTM-3200DR is specifically designed to integrate into your station easily, using the fol- lowing information as a reference. AC Power Supplies Operation of the FTM-3200DR from an AC line requires a power source capable of pro- viding at least 20 Amps continuously at 13.8 Volts DC.
• Allows setting the operating band frequency. Turning clockwise increases the frequency, whereas turning counterclockwise de- creases the frequency. • Allows selecting the desired items for setup, memory registration, group monitoring operation, etc. MIC Jack Connect the provided microphone cable.

Advanced Operation Repeater Operation The FTM-3200DR includes the ARS (Automatic Repeater Shift) function, which permits communication through repeaters automatically, by simply setting the receiver to the re- peater frequency. 1. Tune to the repeater frequency. 2. Press the PTT to transmit.
Advanced Operation Weather Broadcast Reception The FTM-3200DR includes a unique feature which allows reception of weather broad- casts in the 160 MHz frequency range. Ten standard Weather Broadcast channels are preloaded into a special memory bank. To listen to a Weather Broadcast Channel: 1.
Note: For details, refer to the Advanced Manual (download from the Yaesu website). DCS Operation This radio is equipped with a DCS (Digital Coded Squelch) function that allows audio to be heard only when signals containing the corresponding DCS code are received.
Note: For details, refer to the Advanced Manual (download from the Yaesu website). Split Tone Operation The FTM-3200DR can be operated in a “Split Tone” configuration that enables operation on repeaters using a mix of both CTCSS and DCS control via the Setup menu.
Memory Operation The FTM-3200DR provides a wide variety of memory system resources. These include: r 199 “basic” memory channels, numbered “1” through “199”. r A “Home” channel, providing storage and quick recall of one prime frequency. r 10 sets of band-edge memories, also known as “Programmable Memory Scan” chan- nels, labeled “L0/U0”...

(press any other key to cancel the Reset procedure). Clone The FTM-3200DR includes a convenient “Clone” feature, which allows the memory and configuration data from one transceiver to be transferred to another FTM-3200DR. This can be particularly useful when configuring a number of transceivers for a public service operation.
Programming the Key Assignments Default FTM-3200DR key functions have been assigned to the Microphone’s [ P1 ] / [ P2 ] / [ P3 ] / [ P4 ] keys at the factory. The user may change these key function assignments, if quick access to another function is desired.
Note: See Setup Menu Item “44 TEMP” on page 34. Band Edge Beeper The FTM-3200DR will automatically “beep” when the receiver’s band edge is encoun- teredduring scanning (either in standard VFO scanning or during PMS operation). You mayadditionally enable this feature (band edge beeper) when the frequency reaches the bandedge while selecting the VFO frequency manually, using the DIAL knob.
Setup (Menu) Mode The FTM-3200DR Setup (Menu) mode, already described in parts of many previous chapters, is easy to activate and setup. The Menus may be used to configure many of transceiver parameters, some of which have not been detailed previously. Use the following procedure to activate the Setup (Menu) mode: 1.
