Summary
The FT-897D is a rugged, innovative, multiband, multimode 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 includes operation on the SSB, CW, AM, FM, and Digital modes, and it's capable of 20-Watt portable operation using internal batteries, or up to 100 Watts when using an external 13.8-volt DC power source.
The new FT-897D version includes coverage of the U.S. 60-meter (5 MHz) band, along with the 0.5 ppm TCXO Unit, at no additional charge!
Base-Station Operation
The FT-897’s outstanding fundamental performance invites expansion into a full-featured base station.
The optional FP-30 Internal Power Supply provides operation from AC sources, and the clamp-on FC-30
Automatic Antenna Tuner option expands the impedance range of the transceiver. Round out your station
with the MD-200A8X Deluxe Desk Microphone and the VL-1000 Quadra System Linear Amplifier
for world-class performance at home!
The power source tray of the FT-897 is designed to accommodate the optional FP-30 Internal Power Supply,
allowing full-power operation from 100-120 V or 200-240 V AC power sources.
The quiet switching-regulator design of the FP-30 is tolerant of AC input voltage variations,
making it ideal for DX-pedition use! And to extend the impedance bandwidth of your antenna system,
the innovative FC-30 Automatic Antenna Tuner option clamps onto the left side of the FT-897 in seconds!
