Section 97.401(d) of the regulations governing amateur radio in the United States permit emergency amateur communica-
tions on the spot frequency of 5167.5 kHz by stations in (or within 92.6 km of) the state of Alaska. This frequency is only
to be used when the immediate safety of human life and/or property are threatened, and is never to be used for routine
communications.
The FT
DX
9000D includes the capability for transmission and reception on 5167.5 kHz under such emergency conditions
via the Menu system. To activate this feature:

1.
Press the MNU key (#
), located at the bottom
right side of the TFT display.
2.
Rotate the Main Tuning Dial knob (#
) to select
“TX GNRL 160 EMERGENCY FREQ TX.”
3.
Rotate the CLAR/VFO-B knob (#
) select “EN-
ABLE.”
4.
Press and hold in the MNU key for 2 second to
save the new setting and exit to normal operation.
Emergency communication on this spot frequency is
now possible.
5.
Press the V/M key (#
), as necessary, to enter the
Memory mode, then rotate the CLAR/VFO-B knob
to select the emergency channel (M-EMG), which is
found between channels “P-9U” and “01.”
Note that the receive-mode CLARIFIER functions normally while using this frequency, but variation of the transmit fre-
quency is not possible. Activation of “TX GNRL 160 EMERGENCY FREQ TX” does not enable any other out-of-ama-
teur-band capability on the transceiver. The full specifications of the FT
DX
9000D are not necessarily guaranteed on this
frequency, but power output and receiver sensitivity should be fully satisfactory for the purpose of emergency communica-
tion.
If you wish to disable operation capability on the Alaska Emergency Frequency, repeat the above procedures, but set “TX
GNRL 160 EMERGENCY FREQ TX” to “OFF” in step 3.
In an emergency, note that a half-wave dipole cut for this frequency should be approximately 45’3” on each leg (90’6” total
length). Emergency operation on 5167.5 kHz is shared with the Alaska-Fixed Service. This transceiver is not authorized for
operation, under the FCC’s Part 87, for aeronautical communications.
