FM friendly digital operation made possible by AMS (Automatic Mode Select)

You have the choice between of three digital modes using the C4FM protocol, as well as an analog FM mode. The digital modes make effective use of the 12.5 kHz bandwidth for high-quality voice communication, image transmission, messages and data exchange features to accommodate many new operating features.

AMS (Automatic Mode Select)

C4FM Digital products from Yaesu, feature integrated support for C4FM Digital modes, for analog communication, Internet communication, and more. Thanks to the combination of FM friendly design and the AMS function which automatically selects the best mode in any given situation, the user can enjoy optimal performance without worrying about digital vs. analog FM selection.

V/D Mode (Voice/Data Simultaneous Communication Mode) The digital voice signal is transmitted using one half of the bandwidth. Simultaneously the other half of the 12.5 kHz bandwidth channel is used for error correction the audio signal and the accompanying data. The V/D Digital mode provides the ideal balance of error correction and audio quality with the Digital Clear Voice technology developed for C4FM digital.

Voice FR Mode (Voice Full Rate Mode)

This mode uses the full 12.5 kHz bandwidth to transmit digital voice data. The increased audio data permits high quality voice communication.

Data FR Mode (High Speed Data Communication Mode) This high-speed data communication mode uses the full 12.5 kHz bandwidth for data communication. The switches to Data FR mode when transmitting Snapshot pictures, and can be used to transmit large quantities of data at high speed.

Analog FM Mode

Analog FM is effective when weak signal strength causes audio drop out in the digital mode, The FM mode enables communication up to the borderline of the noise level.

The FTM-100D supports WIRES-X, an Internet communication system for amateur radio

Connect the FTM-100D to a WIRES-X node station and enjoy worldwide long-distance communications on VHF/UHF bands via the Internet. WIRES-X is an Internet communication system for Amateur radio. In addition to high quality voice communication based on C4FM digital technology, WIRES-X incorporates user-friendly internet linking features, such as the node ID display and the room activity monitor display. Advanced features

Support for Sophisticated C4FM Digital Functions

Digital GM Function (Digital Group Monitor Function)

The digital GM function automatically makes known when members registered to a GM are within communication range. The distance, direction and call sign are shown on the screen.

The GM function facilitates the exchange of location data, messages and images between active GM group members.

include Internet News Station and image data transmission. The FTM-100D may be connected to the optional HRI-200 WIRES-X Internet Linking Kit to easily establish a WIRES-X node station. The FTM-100D is ideally suited for use in a node station; also the display backlight can be turned off.

Image Data Transmission

Snapshots received from other stations or images downloaded from the WIRES-X News Station are stored on a microSD card. Image data can be viewed and edited using a personal computer.

* The MH-85A11U Camera Speaker Microphone cannot be connected.

Smart Navigation Function

Real-time navigation function enables location checking at any time

Digital V/D Mode communicates the location data simultaneously with the digitized voice signal, allowing you to view the distance, direction, and call sign of the received station in real time while communicating. This makes it possible to confirm your position and the other station in situations while hiking and driving, where the positions are constantly changing, providing an easy way to meet or join routes.

A variety of features that ensures ease of use

Large front panel LED indicator

The FTM-100D has a large BUSY/TX indicator that shows the Transmit/Receive status and the communication mode at the same time. You can see the current communication mode at a glance.

High sensitivity wideband reception

The FTM-100D provides continuous receiver coverage from 108 to 999.99 MHz with high sensitivity reception. Excellent receiver performance for AM/FM and shortwave broadcasts, etc.

Dual Watch Function

The FTM-100D is capable of periodically briefly monitoring the Home channel and, when a signal is detected, automatically stopping to receive it.

■ microSD card slot

The microSD card slot on the front of the transceiver accepts microSD cards (up to 32 GB). Large amounts of data, such frequency memory channels, received image data can be stored on the card.

■ 50 W high power output

Yaesu’s unique transmitter circuit design supports the high performance operation. Powerful 50 W RF output (VHF/UHF Amateur bands) ensures stable long-distance communications.

■ Front panel separation

The front panel can be separated from the main body for custom installation. You can also join the front panel to the main unit.

*10 feet (3 m) control cable is included as standard. An optional 20 feet (6 m) control cable is available.

■ 1200/9600 bps APRS® Data communication

APRS® information display, received station list display, message transfer, as well as SmartBeaconing™ are also supported. You will be able to track your APRS^®movement on the Internet websites.

■ APRS® Display

FTM-100D displays the positions, heading directions of the station, distances, etc.

■ APRS^® List

The station List function stores up to 60 stations with the individual APRS^® data

■ High sensitivity GPS antenna

A high sensitivity 66 channel GPS antenna is provided as a standard feature.

■ GPS logging capability

With the built-in GPS antenna, your own location information can be recorded on a microSD card and plotted later by map software on a PC.

■ Powerful audio output

The built-in speaker supports 3 W of output and the optional MLS-200-M10 external speaker supports 8 W of audio output

■ Frequency announcement and message recording/playback functions

The optional FVS-2 Voice Guide Unit is supported. The FVS-2 announces the operating frequency. You can record and play back a received message.

■ The optional SMB-201 Desktop Cooling Fan can be installed on the FTM-100D

The SMB-201 efficiently cools the heat generated from the FTM-100D when transmission continues for long periods of time. For instance: when the transceiver is used as a WIRES-X node station, or when operating packet communications.

*Simultaneous reception on A bands and B bands is not supported.
