FEATURES
Superior Visibility and Logical, Fatigue-reducing Panel Layout
The front panel layout is logically crafted, with the large-aperture main frequency display squarely in the middle of the front panel; the
two large S-meters to the left providing instant recognition of signal strength.
Just as in an aircraft cockpit, the panel meters and the TFT are canted slightly toward the center for maximum visibility.
Large, Multi-colored VFD Fluorescent Display
A proprietary, high-brightness VFD (fluorescent) display is incorporated in the FT DX 9000D, providing outstanding visibility (supe-
rior even to the TFT) and easy reading of the important frequency information, whether in dim or bright lighting environments.
Function-Indicating LEDs
The many function status indications on the front panel are clearly identified by the operator, thanks to the innovative multi-color LEDs
incorporated in design. A Red LED indicates that a function is engaged on the Main Band, while an Orange LED shows that the function
is engaged on the Sub Band.
Indirect Illumination
For ease of nighttime operation, the controls on the front panel are indirectly illuminated, thanks to carefully-positioned lamps in the
frame underneath the meters and TFT (depending on model).
Aluminum-Die-Cast Oversized Main Tuning Dial
The Main Tuning Dial is a large-diameter (3.2”/81 mm) dial directly coupled to the magnetic rotary encoder which drives the HRDDS
via microprocessor control. Its heavy weight (7 oz./200 g) and quality mounting and construction provide a smooth “flywheel” effect
during operation, ideal for quick cruising up and down a band.
Oversized Knobs for Most Important Functions
The concentric AF/RF Gain, SHIFT/WIDTH, and CLAR/VFO-B knobs are conveniently located right below the TFT, for ease of access
to these important controls.
World’s First 400 MHz HRDDS Local Oscillator
So as to optimize spurious-free dynamic range in a multi-signal environment, Yaesu’s engineers have introduced the world’s first
HRDDS (High Resolution Direct Digital Synthesizer) as the first local oscillator of the FT
DX 9000D. Dividing directly from this high
frequency, this local oscillator design ensures extraordinarily low noise, resulting in improved weak-signal reception even on a crowded
band during a weekend contest.
New-design Large-area OCXO Reference Oscillator
Serving as the master reference oscillator for the transceiver, the 10 MHz OCXO (Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator) is a large-area (50
x 50 mm/2” x 2”) oven-stabilized oscillator operating at high temperature, for industry-leading frequency stability rated at 0.03 ppm
over the temperature range –10° to +60° C (–14° to +140° F).
Triple-conversion Design with Optimized Gain Distribution
Taking into account the most efficient transceiver design concept consistent with high performance we have adopted a triple-conversion IF
structure, utilizing a first IF at 40 MHz, a second IF at 455 kHz, and the third IF at 30 kHz (for FM, the 3rd IF is at 24 kHz). Gain distribution
through all stages is carefully optimized, for preservation of high system dynamic range.
Ultra-strong Receiver Front End
YAESU’s outstanding RF-stage filtering establishes a clean performance that allows the rest of the receiver to perform at a high level. By
reducing the ingress of energy from very strong sources like Shortwave Broadcast, local AM/FM/TV stations, and other signal sources,
the overall purity of the spectrum delivered to the RF Amplifier first mixer, and subsequent stages is maintained, and the system
Blocking Dynamic Range is also enhanced.
Large, Multi-function Color TFT Display
The 800 x 480 dot, 6.5” TFT display is loaded with information that enhances operation of your FT DX 9000D. Besides general status
information, the TFT includes an Audio Scope (both audio spectrum and “Waterfall” displays) and Oscilloscope page, an RF Spectrum
Scope, a Log Book, Swept-Frequency SWR along with PA Temperature, Bias Level, and Voltage, Memory Channel List, World Clock
with Grey Line display, and a Great Circle Map centered on your location, plus direction indication and control of Yaesu Rotators!
Compact Flash (CF) Card for Data Management
A Compact Flash card is supplied with every FT DX 9000D, for preservation of transceiver configuration settings along with Log Book
archival data.
Professional-Grade Cannon (XLR) Microphone Connector
The FT DX 9000D incorporates, for the first time ever in an Amateur Radio transceiver, a balanced-input “Cannon” (XLR) microphone connector on
the front panel, for use with studio-grade professional microphones. A round 8-pin microphone jack is also provided on the rear panel.
Two High-precision Analog Meters (Page 29)
The FT DX 9000D incorporates two large (3.4”/86 mm) high-precision analog meters, for the utmost accuracy in measuring transceiver
performance. Visibility is enhanced by the oversized meter scales, making the meters easy to read at all times.
