Base Station Installation
The FT-2900R is ideal for base station use as well as in mobile installations. The
FT-2900R is specifically designed to integrate into your station easily, using the
information to follow as a reference.
AC Power Supplies
Operation of the FT-2900R from an AC line requires a power source capable of
providing at least 15 Amps continuously at 13.8 Volts DC. The FP-1023 and FP-1030A
AC Power Supplies are available from your Yaesu dealer to satisfy these requirements.
Other well-regulated power supplies may be used, as well, if they meet the above
voltage and current specifications.
Use the DC power cable supplied with your transceiver for making power connections
to the power supply. Connect the RED power cable lead to the POSITIVE (+) power
supply terminal, and connect the BLACK power cable lead to the NEGATIVE (–) power
supply terminal.
