The FT

3000 is a leading-edge transceiver with a number of new and exciting features, some of which may be unfamiliar to you. In order to gain the most enjoyment and operating efficiency from your FT

3000 , we recommend that you read this manual in its entirety, and keep it handy for reference as you explore the many capabilities of your new transceiver.

Before using your FT

3000 , be sure to read and follow the instructions in the “Before You Begin” section of this manual.

Congratulations on the purchase of your Yaesu amateur transcei er If this is your first rig or if aesu e uipment is already the ac one of your station rest assured your transceiver will provide many hours of operating pleasure for years to come.

The FT

3000 is an elite-class HF transceiver providing exceptional performance both on transmit and receive. The FT

3000 is designed for the most competiti e operating situations hether you primarily operate in contest or digital mode en ironments.

Built on the foundation of the popular FT

9000 transcei er and carrying on the proud tradition of the FT-

1000 series the FT

3000 provides up to 100 Watts of po er output on and atts carrier . igital ignal rocessing is utili ed throughout the design pro iding leading edge transmit ter and receiver performance.

For exceptional protection from strong signal interference the optional uning its may e connected ia the rear panel. he uning its pro ide e traor dinarily sharp selectivity and protect your receiver from close-in interference on a crowded band.

In the front end you may select one of t o pream plifiers or I Intercept oint ptimi ation pro iding direct feed to the first mi er. hree le els of attenua tion are available in 6-dB steps.

The FT

3000 recei er utili es filtering incorpo rating many of the features of the FT

9000 such as aria le and idth I hift and ass and ontour tuning. lso pro ided are igital oise eduction igi tal uto otch iltering and a manually tuned I otch filter.

n the transmit side the aesu e clusi e hree and arametric icrophone uali er allo s precise and flexible adjustment of the waveform created by your oice and microphone. he audio mplitude enter re uency and and idth are adjusted separately for the lo mid range and high fre uency audio spectrum.

The transmitted bandwidth may also be adjusted.

d anced features include irect ey oard re uency ntry and and hange peech rocessor I onitor for oice modes itch control pot s itch ull essage emory adjusta le I oise lan er and all mode uelch. hree antenna ports are provided on the rear panel. Two key jac s are pro ided one on the front and one on the rear panel . he ey jac s may e configured independently for paddle input connection to a straight ey or com puter-driven keying interface.

3000 . nter fre uency directly for oth and . eparate eys are a aila le for and selection. ach and ey pro ides three separate settings for three different parts of each band. You may create three independent settings of fre uency mode and filter for each band.

In addition memories are pro ided to store re uen cy ode I filter selection larifier offset and can s ip status. hat s more fi e uic recall memories can instantly store operational settings at the push of a button.

The built-in antenna tuner includes 100 memories that automatically store antenna matching settings for rapid later automatic recall.

Interfacing for digital modes is extremely simple with the FT

3000 than s to the dedicated con nection jac on the rear panel. ptimi ation of the filter pass and settings carrier insertion point and dis play offset for digital modes is possi le ia the enu programming system.

d anced technology is only part of the FT

3000 story. Yaesu stands behind our products with a worldwide network of dealers and service centers. We greatly appreciate your investment in the FT

3000 and e look forward to helping you get the most enjoyment from your ne transcei er. lease feel free to contact your nearest dealer or one of aesu s national head uar ters offices for technical ad ice interfacing assistance or accessory recommendation. atch aesu . . . s ome age for late rea ing information a out tan dard ori on and aesu products http com.
