The FT-897D is a rugged, innovative multiband, multi-
mode portable transceiver for the amateur radio MF/HF/
VHF/UHF bands. Providing coverage of the 160-10 meter
bands (include the 60 m band: USA version) plus the 6 m, 2
m, and 70 cm bands, the FT-897D includes operation on
the SSB, CW, AM, FM, and Digital modes, yielding the most
comprehensive performance package available for field op-
eration.
Designed for use from (1) an external DC power source,
(2) internal battery (requires optional FNB-78 Ni-MH bat-
tery pack), or (3) AC power source (requires optional FP-
30 External AC Power Supply), the FT-897D provides 100
watts of power output from a 13.8-Volt external power sup-
ply or AC operation. When using the optional FNB-78 Ni-
MH Battery Pack, the FT-897D automatically switches to
20 Watts (430 MHz:10W) of output power.
The multi-function Liquid-Crystal Display includes at-
tractive backlighting, which may be disabled for battery con-
servation. The display includes bar-graph indication of power
output, ALC voltage, SWR, and modulation level. Also in-
clude are a number of operating status icons, as well as the
function displays for the three operating function keys (A,
B, and C).
