I NTRODUCTION
The FT-897 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 plus the 6 m, 2 m, and 70 cm bands, the FT-897 in-
cludes operation on the SSB, CW, AM, FM, and Digital
modes, yielding the most comprehensive performance pack-
age available for field operation.
Among the advanced features of the FT-897 are many
incorporated only in large base-station transceivers. These
include Dual VFOs; Split-Frequency operation; Digital Sig-
nal Processing (Bandpass Filtering, Noise Reduction, Notch,
and Microphone Equalizer); IF Shift; Clarifier (“R.I.T.”);
IF Noise Blanker; AGC Fast/Slow/Auto/Off selection; RF
Gain and Squelch control; IPO (Intercept Point Optimiza-
tion) and a receiver front-end Attenuator; AM Aircraft re-
ception; AM and FM Broadcast reception; U.S. Weather
Band reception; VOX; Built-in Electronic Keyer; Adjust-
able CW Pitch; Automatic FM Repeater Shift (ARS); Built-
in CTCSS Encoder/Decoders; ARTS™ (Auto-Range Tran-
sponder System); Smart Search™ Automatic Memory Load-
ing System; Spectrum Scope; 200 Memories plus Home
Channels and Band-limiting Memories; Alpha-Numeric
Labeling of Memories; Automatic Power-Off (APO) and
Time-Out Timer (TOT) functions; Computer Interface ca-
pability; and Cloning capability.
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-897 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-897 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).
We urge you to read this manual in its entirety, so as to
gain a full understanding of the amazing capability of the
exciting new FT-897 Transceiver.
