Split Frequency Operation; Time-Out Timer - Yaesu FT-100D Operating Manual

Transmitter Operation
SPLIT FREQUENCY OPERATION
The FT-100 provides convenient split-frequency operation, using the VFO-A and VFO-B,
for DX working and other operating situations requiring unique split frequency pairs.
The example below will describe a split-frequency DX situation on the 20-meter band,
with a DX station transmitting on 14.025 MHz, listening 10 kHz higher in the band.
\. With the VFO-A set to 14.025.00 MHz Cw.
2. Press the
[FUNC]
key, as needed, to select Operating Function Row 1 [AlB, A=B, SPL,
QMB] on the display.
3. Press the [A](AlB) key momentarily to to VFO-B.
4. Tune the VFO-B frequency to 14.035.00 MHz.
5. Press the [C](SPL) key momentarily. The FT-IOO will now transmit using the VFO-B
frequency, and will receive using the VFO-A frequency. The "SPL" icon will appear on
the display.
6. To listen to the pile-up calling the DX station (so as to align your frequency more
closely to that of the station being worked by the DX), press the [A](A/B) key. The
VFO-B will now be tuning in the vicinity of 14.035 MHz, and you can zero in on the
DX station's listening frequency by tuning in on the station in QSO with the DX. Press
[A](AlB) again to return the receiver to the DX station's transmitting frequency.
7. Press the [C](SPL) key once more to cancel split operation, and the "SPL" icon will
disappear from the display.
TIME-OUT TIMER
Most often used on FM, the transmitter's Time-Out Timer (TOT) feature disables the trans-
mitter after a user-defined period oftransmission. This feature may be useful in preventing
a "stuck microphone" (accidental closure of the
PTT
switch) from causing interference to
other users.
To activate the Time-Out Timer:

CD Press and hold in the
[FUNC]
key for
Y,

Rotate the
SELECT
knob to recall MENU #30 (TOT TIME).
(J)
The default value for this feature is "20 minutes." Rotate the
MAIN DIAL

new value from 1 minute to 20 minutes.

When you have made your selection, press the
[FUNC]
key momentarily to save
the new setting and exit to normal operation.
