The FT-897D includes the capability for transmission and
reception on the five spot frequencies assigned to the Ama-
teur Service in the United States. To operate on the 5 MHz
band:
1. Press the V/M key once to enter the "Memory" mode (a
memory channel number "M-nnn" will appear on the
display in the space previously occupied by "VFOa" or
"VFOb").
2. Memory channels "M-601" through "M-605" are pre-
programmed, at the factory, with
the permitted frequencies in the
5 MHz band, and the USB mode
is automatically selected on
these channels.
If you have partitioned your memory channels into
Memory Groups via Menu Mode No-055 [ MEM
GROUP ] , the memory channel numbers for 60-meter
operation will be displayed as "Ml - 001" ~ "Ml - 005."
See page 45 for details regarding Memory Group opera-
tion, and page 60 for details regarding Menu Mode No-
055 [ MEM GROUP ] .
3. To exit from 60-meter operatin and return to the VFO
mode, just press the V/M key (the memory channel num-
ber will be replaced by "VFOa" or "VFOb").
The frequencies and operating mode for 5 MHz
band operation are both fixed, and may not be
changed.
