HEAVY-DUTY VHF FM TRANSCEIVER

FT-2800M

High power output, a huge,
easy-to-read display, and one­touch WIRES™ Internet Linking
Access capability are yours with
the exciting new FT-2800M.
On transmit, the 65 Watts of
true FM power output provides
you with excellent coverage and
superb voice clarity. On receive,
you get extended coverage of
134-174 MHz, with a special
memory bank dedicated to the
NOAA Weather Broadcast
Channels (U.S. version only).

Built to the exacting requirements
of both the commercial radio
industry, as well as the U.S.
military’s MIL-STD 810, the FT­2800M is constructed using an
aluminum diecast chassis/heatsink
assembly, providing outstanding
mechanical and thermal stability
for the internal components.

With superb ergonomics to go
along with its stout RF design,
the FT-2800M is ready for
action, at home or away!

Four selectable power output levels are
provided: 65/25/10/5 Watts. The power
selection may be stored into memory,
allowing you to conserve power while
using strong local repeaters.

The FT-2800M provides a total of 221
memory channels, including 200 "regular"
memories, ten pairs of band-limit memories,
and an instant-recall "Home" channel
you can dedicate to a frequently-used
repeater or simplex frequency. Memories
can store repeater shift information,
CTCSS/DCS data, power output level,
scanning status ("Skip"), and Alpha­Numeric labels.

ALPHA-NUMERIC CHANNEL DISPLAY

Memory channels may be displayed
either with the channel frequency or a
personalized Alpha-Numeric label, for
easy channel recognition. Up to six
letters, characters, or numbers may be
used for labeling channels.

CTCSS AND DCS

ENCODE/DECODE BUILT IN

For easy repeater access, or silent
monitoring of busy channels, both CTCSS
and DCS (Digital Code Squelch) Encoder/
Decoder circuits are built in. CTCSS and
DCS configuration data may be stored
independently in each memory channel.
A "Split Tone" mode also allows operation on
systems where CTCSS and DCS are used
separately on the repeater uplink/downlink.

VERSATILE SCANNING CAPABILITY

The FT-2800M’s high-speed scanning
features include a choice of scanning­resume options ("carrier drop," "time delay,"
or "halt"), with scanning provided on the
memories, the VFO, or within a limited
VFO sub-band established by one of
the ten pairs of sub-band memories.
You may designate certain constant­carrier memories to be "skipped" during
scanning, and you also may create a
"preferential scan list" to allow scanning
only of selected memories within the
main 200-channel memory bank.

WX CHANNELS WITH

"SEVERE WEATHER" ALERT

A special 10-channel Weather Band
memory bank is provided in the U.S.
version, allowing quick access to NOAA
weather broadcasts. When the 1050-Hz
"Severe Weather" alert tone is transmitted,
