FT100-SuperControl (http://www.supercontrol.de) now offers a special satellite mode,
that can automatically correct the transceiver with Doppler shift data. The program
supports the NOVA and Satscape satellite tracking programs which are used to get the
needed range rate data of the desired satellites. Both transceivers VFOs can be
automatically updated with the Doppler corrected frequency. And if this is not enough,
there is a possibility to turn on additional realtime VFOs which can display the final
frequency for optional transverter devices. Of course these final frequencies can also be
used for the Doppler shift calculation, so it would be perfect for AO-40.
Separation kit (YSK100)
The separation kit is intended to allow the display/user interface portion of the radio to be
physically separated from the chassis of the radio to facilitate installation in confined
spaces. There are three cables included with the kit. One cable connects the front panel of
the radio to the radio chassis. Another cable is an extension for the microphone and the
third is an extension for the external speaker. There is a convenience to having three
separate cables because it gives you more flexibility in mounting the display,
microphone, and external speaker. There is also a plastic bracket to hold the display. It
has a quick release feature similar to the radio chassis, but is not as convenient to use
because the latch is harder to reach and to actuate. The price of the kit is US$79.95.
Serial Numbers
Yaesu appears to use the following format for serial numbers on their amateur products:
Year of manufacture-Month of manufacture-Production Run-Individual Unit number
Example: 9D051234 = 1999, February (second month, or "D"), Production Run 05, unit
#1234 in this run.
(Apparently Yaesu does not use the letters A or B as a letter in the second position, hence
the first month, January, would be a 'C', February is a 'D', etc..)
Some members have reported that they are receiving models beginning with 9D at late as
February, 2000 while others are getting units with serial numbers beginning with 9I. It is
unlikely that the 9D units are factory refurbished but rather units that had been
accumulating waiting to be updated to the latest revision level and sold as new.
Refurbished products are required by law to be marked as such.
Sidetone/Beep Volume Adjustment
The sidetone/beep volume can be adjusted using VR1004 (labeled VR04 on the board). It
is located under the top cover adjacent to the speaker connection. Be very careful as this
pot is very small and can easily be damaged.
