4. Connecting and Selecting the Microphone
The FT
DX
9000D comes equipped with two microphone connectors: the front panel includes a “Cannon” (XLR) three-pin
connector, while the rear panel provides an eight-pin (round) connector.
As shipped from the factory, the front panel XLR connector is engaged for operation, and the rear panel 8-pin microphone
jack is not connected. If you wish to enable the 8-pin connector instead of the XLR connector, use the Menu to accomplish
this. Note that you may leave microphones connected to both jacks, and may select the microphone you want for operation
on a particular operating mode (SSB, AM, FM, etc.), as well!
Ì
Press the MNU (Menu) key momentarily to enter
the Menu Mode.
Ì
Rotate the Main Tuning Dial to select Menu Item
#69, located within the “MODE SSB” group: SSB MIC
SELECT.
Ì
Rotate the CLAR/VFO-B knob to change the set-
ting of Menu #069 from “FRONT” to “REAR.”
Ì
Press
and hold in
the MNU (Menu) key for
two sec-
onds
to save the new setting and exit to normal opera-
tion.
Ì
In a similar manner, you may use Menu #040 (AM
MIC SEL) in the MODE-AM Menu Group to select
the microphone jack to be used during AM operation,
and Menu #059 (FM MIC SEL) in the MODE-FM
Menu Group to select the microphone to be used dur-
ing FM transmission.
5. Extending the Front Feet
In order to elevate the front panel for easy viewing, the front left and right feet of the bottom case may be extended.
Ì
Pull the front legs outward from the bottom panel.
Ì
Rotate the legs counter-clockwise to lock them in the
extended position. Be sure the legs have locked se-
curely in place, because the transceiver is quite heavy
and an unlocked leg could result in damage, should
the transceiver move suddenly.
