Be sure that both the FT
DX
9000 Contest and VL-1000 are turned off, then follow the installation recommendations
contained in the illustration.
On the rear panel of the VL-1000, please set the “ATT” switch to the “ON” position. The 200-Watt power output from the
FT
DX
9000 Contest is far in excess of what is required to drive the VL-1000 to its full rated output.
Note
Please refer to the VL-1000 Operating Manual for details regarding amplifier operation.
Please do not attempt to connect or disconnect coaxial cables when your hands are wet.
About the CONTROL Cable
The VL-1000 may be operated with the FT
DX
9000
Contest whether or not the CONTROL Cable is con-
nected; however, the CONTROL Cable allows you
to tune up the amplifier automatically by just press-
ing the F SET or TUNE key on the VL-1000,
so as to transmit a carrier for tuning purposes.
To link the FT
DX
9000 Contest and VL-1000 Power
switches, set the VL-1000 REMOTE switch to the
ON position.
Control Cable Modification
Please cut off the RCA connector on one end of the
CONTROL Cable supplied with the VL-1000, and
install a 7-pin DIN connector in its place, accord-
ing to the illustration.
