ALL-MODE, ALL-BAND TRANSCEIVER

SYSTEM
The F T- 767GX is a solid-state, all mode synthesized amateur transceiver incorpora­
ting automatic antenna tuner, p ower sup ply and provisions for up to three o ptional
internal VHF and UHF band modules.
The standard model provides 100 watts RF power
output on all hf amateur bands in SSB, CW, FM and FSK modes (and 25 watts AM carrier
power). Optional band modules provide 10 watts output on the 6m, 2 m and 70cm bands.
The die-cast top half of the cha ssis incorp orates the Duct Flow Cooling syste m
originated for amateur radio b y Yaesu, where air is circulated over the circuit
board s and through out the chassis by a quiet internal cooling fan when operating
tem perature rises.
Four internal microprocessors with a custom gate array provide the highest level of
digital i ntegration and control ever ·offered to radio a mateurs: including features
previously unknown in a transceiver, such as freely user-progra m mable independent
tuning steps for each mode, an auto-calculating digital SWR meter, digital RF watt­
meter, synchronous tracking VF Os and autospeed AGC (when tuning or scanning) .
Popular operating conveniences such as dual (A-B) independent VF Os, ten memories
storing both frequency and mode, all mode squelch and range/step programmable scan­
ner,
continuously variable noise blanker threshold, I F shift and IF notch are
included with recent improvements in response to operators' requests.
For CW operators, the FT-767GX operates QSK and includes (as standard) an iambic
key er w ith linear speed control, selectable sidetone and carrier offset ( 600/700/800
Hz), 3-speed AGC (plus OFF), and tunable audio peak filter, all adjustable from the
front panel.
A narrow ( 600 Hz) CW cry stal filter is also included as standard.
For especially convenient VHF and UHF operation with the optional band modules, an
FM discriminator center tuning meter is provided, and to facilitate repeater opera­
tion, a split-frequency and clarifier offset display function plus the mode­
dependent programmable tuning steps and tracking VFOs are particularly useful. An
optional subaudible Tone Squelch Unit can be program med from the front panel, and a
Burst Tone Generator is installed as standard in European versions.
