PATCH  IN 

is  a  phono  jack  which  accepts 

transmitter  audio  input  from  a  phone 
patch,  external  AFSK  generator  or  other 
source  with  600  ohms  impedance. 

Optimum 

input  level  is  2  m Vrms.  The  MIC  control 
on  the  front  panel  affects  this  input. 

F SK 

is  a  phono  jack  which  provides 

VDC 

whenever  the  FSK  mode  is  selected.  This 

may  be  used  as  a  control  line  for  your 

terminal  unit  (to  turn  it  off  when  oper­
ating  on  other  modes). 

( 13) 

FUSE 

Holder 

For  100  - 117  VAC  oper',ation,  install  a  IOA 
fuse  here.  For  200  - 23�  VAC  operation  in­

stall  a  SA  fuse. 

(14)  AC 

Jack 

After  ensuring  that  the  iii.stalled  fuse  has  the 

correct  rating  for  the  AC  voltage  to  be  used, 
connect  the  mating  end  of  the  supplied  AC 
cable  to  this  3-pin  jack. 

(15) 

ANT 

Coaxial  Jack 

This  type  'M'  (S0-239)  jack  is  for  connection 

of  your  hf  antenna,  or  linear  amplifier  input. 

Optimum  impedance  is  50  ohms,  unbalanced. 

FT-767GX  POWER  TRANSFORMER  VOLTAGE  SELECTION 

If  your  local 

AC 

mains  voltage  does  not  match  the  label  on  the  rear of  the  FT-767GX,  the  taps  on  the 

primary  winding of the power transformer in the FT-767GX should be changed  according to the following 
procedure.  Make  sure  to  change  the  label  on  the  rear  of  the  transceiver to  match  the  new  voltage  after 

changing  the  taps. 

1)  Disconnect  all  cables  from  the  transceiver. 

2)  Remove  the  two  screws  affixing  each  VHF or 

UHF  Band Module, and slide the modules out of 

the  transceiver  (Figure  1). 

3)  Remove  the  two  screws at  the  front of the  top 

cover  (heatsink,  see  Figure  2). 

4) 

Place the transceiver upside down, and remove 

the  four  screws  from  the  bottom  corners  and 
two on each side (including the carrying handle 
screws,  see Figure 3).  Then remove  the handle 
and  the  bottom  cover. 

5)  Referring to  Figure 

4, 

remove the  seven black 

painted  screws  from  the  rear  panel.  Then 
remove  the  (black)  outer  rear  panel. 

6)  Referring to  Figure  5,  remove  the  ten  screws 

from  the  inner  rear  panel,  and  remove  this 

panel. 

7)  Remove one screw from each side,  as indicated 

in  Figure  6. 

8 )  

Locate the  white molex connectors  (for power 

and loudspeaker)  inside  the  rear  of  the  chas­
sis,  and  disconnect  them. 

9) 

Fold  the  lower  half  of the  chassis  away  from 
the  upper  half,  placing  a  book  or  similar 
support  of  about  the  same  thickness  as  the 
heatsink  under  the  bottom  half  as  shown  in 
Figure 

8. 

10)  Remove  the  seven  screws  from  the  shield 

cover  on  the  inside  of  the  heatsink,  as  shown 

in  Figure 

9. 

11)  Locate the power transformer (Figure 

IO ) , 

and 

change  the  wiring  as  indicated  by  the  labels 

on  the  transformer. 

12)  Reassemble  the  transceiver  in  the  reverse 

order  of  disassembly,  and  change  the  voltage 

label  on  the  rear  panel  to  match  the  new 
transformer  voltage.
