FT-818 - 6W HF/VHF/UHF All Mode Portable Transceiver

 

The new FT-818 incorporates all the many basic and attractive features of the ever-popular FT-817ND while providing upgrades desired by many existing owners. The FT-818 provides 6W of solid output power with an external DC power source. The supplied Ni-MH battery pack (SBR-32MH) has been upgraded to now provide larger battery capacity - 9.6v/ 1900mAh. The recent launch of several new satellites is a certain indicator that the large global community of satellite enthusiast are going to be very delighted to learn that the FT-818 includes a Built-in TCXO-9 oscillator that gives the FT-818 fantastic frequency stability (±0.5ppm).

M-1 The Condenser Microphone Element produces greater frequency response and clear, crisp audio characteristics perfect for being heard on crowd bands and in big DX pile-ups, while the Dynamic Microphone Element delivers the rich low-mid tonalities, favored for local QSOs.  The response of each microphone element may be adjusted independently using the internal Nine (9) Band Graphic Equalizer.  Each element has a separate volume control for independent adjustment of output levels.  The output of each microphone may be selected separately, or they may be combined to produce the most pleasant tonality.  Both the Condenser Element and Dynamic Element in the M-1 utilize the Nine (9) Band Graphic Equalizer (63Hz, 125Hz, 250Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 2kHz, 4kHz, 8kHz, 16kHz).  Each element’s frequency response is independently adjustable.  Two (2) frequency response memories and a “through” mode are provided for each element, and are easily switchable by one-touch buttons on the microphone base.  The PTT key uses three Air-Cylinder Tubes which afford a smooth and comfortable long keystone.  The contactless magnetic switch ensures long-life and stable operation.  Other included features are; Recording and playback capability (20 seconds), to confirm the audio tonality; Large red TX LED Indicator; Large Graphic Equalizer and Frequency Response Scope LCD Display with anti-reflective coating; Headphone jack; Touch PTT keylock; Built-in low-cut filter to shape the low frequency response; Cannon-type (XLR) output plug connector; and Audio output volume control for headphones.  Two screwdrivers are included to precisely adjust the graphic equalizer and microphone gains. 
M-100 The Condenser Microphone Element produces greater overall frequency response - with clear and crisp audio characteristics - while the Dynamic Microphone Element delivers enhanced low and mid-range frequency response.  A set of one-touch buttons on the microphone base enable the two microphone elements to be used independently or in combinations to create the most favorable sound quality for each person’s unique voice characteristics.  Built-in Low-Cut (cut-off at 340Hz, -6dB/octave) and High-Cut (cut-off  at 2kHz, -6dB/octave) controls shape the low/ high frequency responses enabling changes to be made in the transmitted audio characteristics, according to user’s preference and operating conditions.   The supplied TBC (Treble Boost Cowling) further enhances the voice response attributes in the important 1,000 – 1,500 Hz range, in order to develop a penetrating signal with a condensed and specific texture.  The PTT key actuates three Air-Cylinder Tubes, which afford a smooth and comfortable keystroke – free of a hard “click”.  The incorporation of a magnetic switch ensures long-life and stable operation. The highly visible ON AIR LED Indicator clearly informs the user when the PTT circuit is active. The supplied microphone cable can be used to provide power to the M-100 simply by connecting with compatible YAESU HF transceivers*.  Current YAESU HF radio owners can immediately start using this new microphone as an exciting and valuable addition to their current ham radio operation.  Whether it’s for wider-range audio with more presence or focused energy to cut through the pile-ups, the M-100 is an exceptional station asset.  While the recently released M-1 microphone provides the ultimate flexibility in enhancing each user’s distinctive voice characteristics - utilizing a full-featured Nine Band Graphic Equalizer - we are confident that the carefully selected feature configuration of the new M-100 offers the advantage of combining the two different microphone element characteristics with simplified operation, all at a very attractive price point.
M-70D The M-70 utilizes a directional condenser microphone element which has a prescisely tuned the frequency response to obtain clear and crisp audio quality..  The PTT uses three Air-Cylinder tubes similar to the Reference Microphone M-1 to provide a solid and smooth extended operation. A simple one-touch PTT keylock button is placed just above the PTT key for those long rag chews.  Built-in Low-Cut filter allows to shaping of the low frequency response (cut off at 340Hz, -6dB/octave). ON/ OFF is selectable by a sliding switch located on the bottom of the microphone.    An isolation transformer is integrated in the circuit board to enhance the audio quality. The M-70 is compatible with all YAESU HF transceivers equipped with round 8-pin microphone connector or 8-pin modular microphone connector.  We believe this Microphone will have a positive impact on your YAESU HF transceivers business.
M-90D The M-90D and M-90MS utilizes a dynamic microphone element that is finely tuned to deliver rich low to mid frequency response desirable for a clear and concise conversation.  Using a windscreen cover and a directional micophone element, the structure of the microphone of the M-90D and M- 90MS is designed to concentrate voice input from the front while reducing ambient noise from the side. Built-in Low-Cut filter creates clear and crisp audio characteristics by shaping the low frequency response (cut off at 340Hz, -6dB/octave).  An isolation transformer is integrated in the circuit board in order to enhance the audio quality. The M-90D and M-90MS* are compatible with all YAESU HF transceivers equipped with the round 8-pin microphone connector or the 8-pin modular microphone connector.  The PTT of the M-90D uses three Air-Cylinder tubes similar to the Reference Microphone M-1. This provides solid and smooth extended operation.  A simple one-touch PTT keylock button is placed directly above the PTT key for those long rag chews.
