ISPLAY NDICATIONS R
Sub VFO-B Receiver S-Meter
Displays the strength of signals received on the Sub
band (VFO-B).
TX
This indicator appears during transmission on the Sub
band (VFO-B) frequency.
BUSY
This indicator appears whenever the Sub band (VFO-
B) receiver squelch is open. If this indicator is not show-
ing, and reception seems to have been lost on the Sub
receiver for no apparent reason, check the position of
the Sub [ SQL ] knob and rotate it fully counter-clock-
wise to restore reception.
Sub VFO-B Frequency Display
This is the Sub band (VFO-B) frequency display.
A :
DVICE
When activating the CW Spot Tone, the current tone
frequency will appear in this area.
When turning the [ PITCH ] , [ SPEED ] , [ CON-
TOUR ] , [ NOTCH ] , [ DNR ] , [ DELAY ] , [ RF
PWR ] , [ MIC ] , [ PROC ] , [ SHIFT ] , or [ WIDTH ]
knob, each frequency or value will appear in this
area for 3 seconds.
If the knob is turned too slowly, the frequency dis-
play may not show the value. This is to prevent
undesired display of the functions caused by noise
or slight vibration of the controls; however, the
actual value will be changed even if not displayed.
You can observe the fine adjustment for a few sec-
onds while the display is active.
While adjusting functions, the display may occa-
sionally skip one of the numbers in the sequence;
this is due to "rounding" of the encoder steps in
the ADC converter. Set the values to your prefer-
ence, they are unique to your radio and may not
directly correspond to other units.
When setting the Menu items, the Menu item name
will appear in this area during setup.
When setting the CTCSS frequency for Encoding
or Tone Squelch operation, the current tone fre-
quency will appear in this area during setup.

This indicator appears when the [ SUB VFO-B ] knob's
tuning rate is selected to fast.
AGC A, F, M, S
Displays the currently-selected AGC decay time for
the Sub (VFO-B) receiver.
A: Auto, F: Fast, M: Medium, S: Slow
NB
This indicator appears when the Sub (VFO-B)
receiver's (short duration) Noise Blanker is activated.
This indicator will blink for three seconds, and there-
after appears continuously, when the Sub (VFO-B)
receiver's longer-pulse Noise Blanker is activated.
NAR
This indicator appears whenever the optional Sub
(VFO-B) receiver's narrow filter is selected.
I
MPORTANT
The FT-2000 uses a Vacuum Fluorescent Display
(VFD).
With long-term use, it is normal for the indication
color to change and the brightness level to decrease.
The 50 % brightness level is rated more than 30
thousand hours.
