20 FT-8800R Operating Manual
Hi! I’m R. F. Radio, and I’ll be helping you along as you learn the many features
of the FT-8800R. I know you’re anxious to get on the air, but I encourage you to
read the “Operation” section of this manual as thoroughly as possible, so you’ll get the
most out of this fantastic new transceiver. Now. . .let’s get operating!
TURNING THE TRANSCEIVER ON AND OFF
1. To turn the transceiver on, press and hold in the “right
VOL knob for 2 seconds.
When you turn on the FT-8800R, the current DC sup-
ply 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 “rightVOL knob for 2 seconds.
ADJUSTING THE AUDIO VOLUME LEVEL
The audio volume level is set independently for the “left” and “right” sides of the trans-
ceiver. The “leftVOL knob provides adjustment for the “left” side of the FT-8800R,
while the “rightVOL knob provides adjustment for the “right” side of the FT-8800R.
ADJUSTING THE SQUELCH SETTING
The squelch is also set independently for the “left” and “right” sides of the transceiver. The
leftSQL knob provides adjustment for the “left” side of the FT-8800R, while the “right
SQL knob provides adjustment for the “right” side of the FT-8800R.
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 26 for details
SELECTING THE OPERATING BAND
In the factory default configuration, The FT-8800R operates in the “Dual Receive” mode.
During Dual Receive operation, the “Main” band frequency ( on which transmission is
possible) will be indicated by the “ ” icon.

, or press the DIAL knob for the “left” or “right” side momentarily, as
