and a wealth of new features for the 2m amateur band. Slightly smaller and lighter than the
FT-23R/73R, the FT-411
around all external controls and connectors keep out dust and rain or spray, assuring years
of reliable operation even in harsh environments.
Sixteen multi-function keys provide the ultimate in programmability of 49 freely tunable
memories and two vfos. All memories store repeater shifts or separate tx/rx frequencies,
CTCSS (Continuous Tone Controlled Squelch System) tone frequencies and tone encode/
decode selections with one instant-recall call channel memory and two special purpose
memories for limited subband tuning/scanning. Busy channel band or selective memory
scanning is provided along with priority channel monitoring; 1 MHz up/down stepping;
ARS (automatic repeater shift) when tuned to repeater subbands, plus a top panel rotary
dial for memory and frequency selection. The keypad serves as a DTMF encoder during
transmission, and up to 10 DTMF memories can store 15 digits each for quick playback of
commonly used numbers.
The liquid crystal display shows six frequency digits, memory selection, CTCSS tone fre-
quency while setting*, page-received status when paged by a CTCSS tone*, and includes a
bargraph S/PO meter. Yaesu's power saver system can be set by the operator for optimum
sampling/standby ratio, or can be turned off for packet operation. And our new APO (Au-
tomatic Power Off) system shuts off the transceiver to avoid dead batteries if you doze off
or are called away unexpectedly.
Operation under difficult conditions is simplified by a lamp button illuminating the display
and backlit translucent keypad, diatonically assigned function-dependent keypad beeps.
Please read this manual carefully to gain a clear understanding of the features of the FT-
411
