14 FT-2800M OPERATING MANUAL
Hi! I’m R. F. Radio, and I’ll be helping you along as you learn the many features
of the FT-2800M. I know you’re anxious to get on the air, but I encourage you to
read “Basic Operation” section of this manual as thoroughly as possible, so you’ll get the
most out of this fantastic new transceiver. Now. . .lets get operating!
TURNING THE TRANSCEIVER ON AND OFF
1. To turn the transceiver on, press and hold in the PWR key
for one second.
When you turn on the FT-2800M, the current DC supply
voltage is indicated on the LCD for 2 seconds. After this
interval, the display will switch its normal indication of the
operating frequency.
2. To turn the transceiver off, again press and hold in the PWR key for one second.
ADJUSTING THE AUDIO VOLUME LEVEL
Rotate the VOL control to adjust the receiver volume. Clock-
wise rotation increases the audio output level.
ADJUSTING THE SQUELCH SETTING
Rotate the SQL control just to the point where the noise is si-
lenced and the “ ” indicator on the display turns off. If the
SQL control is set further clockwise, sensitivity to weak sig-
nals is reduced.
A special “RF Squelch” feature is provided on this radio. This
feature allows you to set the squelch so that only signals exceeding a certain S-meter level
will open the squelch. See page 20 for details

Tuning Dial
Rotating the DIAL knob allows tuning in the pre-programmed steps. Clockwise rotation of the
DIAL knob causes the FT-2800M to be tuned toward a higher frequency, while counter-clock-
wise rotation will lower the operating frequency.
Press the
[
MHz
(
SET
)]
key momentarily, then rotate the DIAL knob, to change the frequency
steps to 1 MHz per step. This feature is extremely useful for making rapid frequency excursions
over the wide tuning range of the FT-2800M. Instead of pressing the
[

(
SET
)]
button, you
may also press the
[

]
key on the Microphone’s keypad to engage tuning in 1 MHz steps.
