The Operator Control Panel

You can interact with the FT-70/75’s through the Operator Control 
Panel. The Control Panel contains eight keys and a two-line LCD 
(Liquid Crystal Display) capable of displaying 24 characters per 
line.

A remote, hand-held control is also available. The Remote Control 
Panel detaches from the FT-70/75 thereby allowing easier access.
