You may connect an after-market transverter to the rear panel's TRV (Transverter) jack. The output, at 28 MHz, is approxi-
mately –10 dBm (0.1 mW) at 50 Ohms.

7. Press and hold in the [ MENU ] button for at least two
seconds to save the new setting and exit to normal op-
eration.
You may set up the frequency display so that it shows the actual band on which your transverter is operating (instead
of the "IF" used by the transverter, which is the 28 MHz band on your FT-2000).
Example: Setting up the FT-2000 display for use with a 144 MHz Transverter
1. Connect the 144 MHz transverter to the FT-2000.
2. Press the [ MENU ] button to enter the Menu mode.
3. Rotate the Main Tuning Dial knob to select Menu item "034 GEnE TRV SET
default setting).
4. Rotate the [ SUB VFO-B ] knob so as to select "44
5. Press and hold in the [ MENU ] button for at least two seconds to save the new setting and exit.
The "100 MHz" digit of the frequency is not displayed, so when you are operating on 2 meters and see "45 MHz" on
the frequency readout, this indicates "145 MHz" instead.
Advice:
With the setup described above, tuning the operating range 28-29 MHz will correspond to an actual operating
frequency of 144-145 MHz, with "44-45" being displayed on the front panel of the transceiver.

scribed previously.

DVICE
When the "TRV" mode is turned on, power output will
not be allowed to pass to the "ANT 1" or "ANT 2" main
antenna jacks. So one of these may be connected to your
transverter's "RX" jack. Just be certain to disconnect the
transverter when returning to HF operation, as the selected
Antenna jack will now be capable of passing RF power.
