It ' .' . ,
Hi! I'm R. F. Radio, and I'll be helping you along as you learn the many
~
_ features of the FT-IOO.I know you're anxious to get on the air, but I encour-
~ ~
. age you to read the "Operation" section of this manual as thoroughly as
possible, so you'll get the most out of this fantastic new transceiver. Now ... let's get
operating!
BEFORE
You
START
1. Be certain that power supply connections have been securely made, and that the proper
polarity has been observed.
2. Be certain that your antennas have been connected to the correct cable pigtails on the
rear of the transceiver.
OPERATION QUICK START
The basic steps required to begin operation are:
1. Tum the transceiver on.
2. Set the band on which you wish to operate.
3. Set the operating mode on which you wish to operate.
4. Adjust the audio volume level.
5. Adjust the operating frequency using the MAIN DIAL.
TURNING THE TRANSCEIVER ON AND OFF
1.
To tum the FT-IOO on, press and hold in the PWR switch for Yz second.
2. To tum the transceiver off, again press and hold in the PWR switch for Yz second.
By making you press the PWR switch for
~
second, the FT-lOO makes it
more difficult for you accidentally to cut power by justbumping the switch
with your finger.
AMATEUR BAND SELECTION
Press either the [UP] or [DWN] key to move to the next higher or lower Amateur band,
respectively.
As you do this, you may observe the operating mode changing. This is normal; default
"startup" modes are pre-programmed for each band, for your convenience. These modes
may be changed, of course, per the next section.
