ESCRIPTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your Yaesu amateur trans-
ceiver! Whether this is your first rig, or if Yaesu equipment is
already the backbone of your station, rest assured that your
transceiver will provide many hours of operating pleasure
for years to come.
The FT-2000D is an elite-class HF transceiver providing ex-
ceptional performance both on transmit and receive. The FT-
2000D is designed for the most competitive operating situa-
tions, whether you primarily operate in contest, DX, or digi-
tal-mode environments.
Built on the foundation of the popular
FT
DX
9000
transceiver,
and carrying the proud tradition of the
FT-1000
series, the
FT-2000D provides up to 200 Watts of power output on SSB,
CW, and FM (50 Watts AM carrier). Digital Signal Process-
ing (DSP) is utilized throughout the design, providing lead-
ing-edge performance on both transmit and receive.
Available as an option for the FT-2000D is the Data Man-
agement Unit ( DMU-2000 ), which provides extensive dis-
play capabilities via a user-supplied computer monitor. In-
cluded are Band Scope, Audio Scope, X-Y Oscilloscope,
World Clock, Rotator Control, and extensive transceiver sta-
tus displays, in addition to station logging capability.
For exceptional protection from strong nearby incoming sig-
nals, the Yaesu-exclusive VRF (Variable RF Front-End Fil-
ter) serves as a high-performance Preselector-ideal for multi-
operator contest environments. This filter is manually tuned,
allowing the operator to optimize sensitivity or signal rejec-
tion with the twist of a knob. And for then ultimate in re-
ceiver RF selectivity, the optional RF
μ Tuning Kits may be
connected via the rear panel, providing extraordinarily sharp
selectivity to protect your receiver from close-in interference
on a crowded band.
In addition to the contribution of the VRF Preselector, su-
perb receiver performance is a result of direct lineage from
the legendary
FT
DX
9000 , FT-1000D , and FT-1000MP . You
may select, in the front end, one of two RF preamplifiers, or
IPO (Intercept Point Optimization) utilizing direct feed to
the first mixer, and/or three levels of RF attenuation in 6-dB
steps.
Dual Receive is built into every
FT-2000D
. The Main re-
ceiver utilizes DSP filtering, incorporating many of the fea-
tures of the
FT
DX
9000 , such as Variable Bandwidth, IF Shift,
and Passband Contour tuning. Digital Noise Reduction and
Digital Auto-Notch Filtering are also provided, along with a
manually-tuned IF Notch filter. The Sub receiver, used for
monitoring within the same band as the Main band, is an
analog type ideal for watching both sides of a pile-up, or
keeping an ear on a DX station working stations by call area,
etc.
On the transmit side, the Yaesu-exclusive Three-Band Para-
metric Microphone Equalizer allows precise and flexible ad-
justment of the wave-form created by your voice and micro-
phone. The Amplitude, Center Frequency, and Bandwidth of
equalization may be adjusted independently for the low-fre-
quency, mid-range, and high-audio-frequency spectra, and
the transmitted bandwidth may also be adjusted, as well.
Advanced features include Direct Keyboard Frequency En-
try and Band Change, Speech Processor, IF Monitor for Voice
modes, CW Pitch control, CW Spot switch, Full CW QSK,
adjustable IF Noise Blanker, and all-mode Squelch. Two TX/
RX antenna ports, plus a receive-only antenna port, are pro-
vided on the rear panel. Two key jacks are provided (one
each on the front and rear panels), and they may be config-
ured independently for paddle input or connection to a straight
key or computer-driven keying interface. Both Digital Voice
Recording and CW Message Memory are provided.
Frequency setup is extraordinarily simple on the
FT-2000D
.
Besides direct frequency entry for both the Main and Sub
VFOs, separate keys are provided for band selection, and
each band key accesses three independent VFO frequency/
mode/filter settings per band, so you can establish separate
VFO settings for three different parts of each band. The two
(Main and Sub) VFOs allow simultaneous reception and dis-
play of two different frequencies, even in different modes
and with different IF bandwidths. Receiver audio can be com-
pletely or partially mixed, or monitored separately in each
ear.
In addition, 99 memories are provided, each of which stores
its own mode and IF filter selection, in addition to frequency,
Clarifier offset, and scan-skip status. What's more, five quick-
recall (“QMB”) memories can instantly store operational set-
tings at the push of a button.
The built-in automatic antenna tuner includes 100 memories
of its own, automatically storing antenna matching settings
for quick automatic recall later.
Interfacing for digital modes is extremely simple with the
FT-2000D , thanks to dedicated AFSK and FSK connection
jacks on the rear panel. Optimization of the filter passbands,
DSP settings, carrier insertion point, and display offset are
all possible via the Menu programming system.
The Yaesu CAT system provides a direct link to the trans-
ceiver CPU for computer control and customization of tun-
ing, scanning, and other operating functions. The
FT-2000D
includes a built-in data level converter for direct connection
to a personal computer serial port. Yaesu products are sup-
ported by most of the leading contest and DX logging pro-
grams. The extensive programming protocol is described in
the CAT System Manual, supplied with this transceiver, if
you wish to write your own software!
Advanced technology is only part of the FT-2000D story.
