"Block Diagram" display shows the current status of a
number of functions in the receiver of the FT-950. With one glance,
you can see your settings for a number of critical functions of the
radio. And you will also see Bar Graphs depicting several different
DSP filter settings at the same time for quick alignment.
Optional
External Data Management Unit - DMU-2000
A wide array of
information, useful and easily understood displays, absolutely
identical to those available on the FTDX9000 and the FT 2000 series
radios can also be yours by adding the optional DMU-2000 Data
Management Unit and an after-market keyboard and PC display (not
supplied).
** Spectrum Scope
with LBWS - The RF Band Scope allows you to view activity within a
span of 25 kHz, 100 kHz, 250 kHz, 500 kHz, 1 MHz, or 2.5 MHz,
depending on your requirements, with a fixed sweep speed for seamless
transition between spans. Additionally, the YAESU-exclusive LBWS
(Limited Band Width Sweep) allows you to reduce the bandwidth to 50%,
30%, or 10% of the original, imparting a corresponding increase in
the sweep speed, if you like. By sweeping just a limited portion of
the main Band Scope at high speed, you will get a superbly detailed
view of activity in that segment of the overall band, allowing you
precise zero-in capability not found with competing products. With a
50% reduction, you will get double the speed; with reduction to 30%
of the original sweep, you will get a 3X increase in speed, and by
reducing the bandwidth to 10% you will get a whopping 10X increase in
the sweep speed. You can use the " " and " " keys
to move the remaining window, as desired. You may choose the Spectrum
Scope Function (which will plot your current operating frequency in
the middle of the monitor screen) or the Band Monitor Function (which
will be checking the whole band you are currently operating). At the
Band Monitor Function, you will be able to set the lowest starting
frequency at your preference (for CW or SSB operation). The lowest
starting frequency will not be purged if once set up even if you
change your bandwidth. ** Audio Scope/Oscilloscope Display Function -
The Audio Scope Function and the Oscilloscope Function of the
DMU-2000 may be the most useful capability of the Data Management
Unit. The Audio Scope portrays the audio spectrum of either the
receiver passband or your transmitted signal, allowing you to
visualize the frequency components as you hear them. This function
also enables you to make adjustments to, such as, the Notch Filter,
Contour control or (on transmit) the Parametric Microphone Equalizer.
At the same time, you may use the Oscilloscope to look at the X-Y
characteristics of an incoming signal with variable level and sweep
speed, or to check CW tone pitch, etc.
**Swept-Frequency
SWR Display - As you tune across the Amateur band and transmit at
different frequencies, the DMU-2000 will plot the SWR across the
band, alerting you to any unusual SWR situations, etc.
** Memory Channel
List - You may edit and confirm your memory frequency channels, with
easy on your big screen, such as to add an alpha/numeric "Tag"
to each memory for quick recall of the channel's identification.
** World Clock
Display -The World Clock function includes a world map with entries
for a number of locations throughout the world, so that you will see
what the time of day at the other end of our QSO or anywhere in the
world. Of great advantages value to serious DXers is the
Sunrise/Sunset depiction, which shows the "Gray Line" area
where propagation frequently is enhanced. An alarm feature is also
included, to alert you of a schedule time.
** Rotator
Control Function - The Rotator Control Function includes the Great
Circle Map that allows you to aim your directional antenna accurately
(e.g. Tokyo seems to be located West from San Francisco though it is
more actually located to the NNW direction) and the imbedded database
of worldwide cities may be used to determine a specific bearing to a
DX location, if you like. The Rotator Control function further lets
you control the left(C-C-W)/right(C-W) rotation of your Yaesu
G-800/1000/2800DXA series rotator, in addition to permitting speed
control and setup of preset beam headings. And, if you use your
after-market keyboard for input of your latitude and longitude, the
DMU-2000 will lie out compute and display a Great Circle Map centered
on your location! You may also connect a GPS Unit (one capable of
output of NMEA0183 position data) to your DMU-2000 to download
precise position data.
** Log Book
Feature - By connecting an after-market keyboard and monitor to the
DMU-2000, you can utilize the on-board logging capability of the
FT-2000. The Log Book includes an extensive database of DX
information, and you may archive your log data to the supplied CF
card using one of the popular and available logging formats like
ADIF, Cabrillo, etc.
Optional
Fully-automatic External RF µ-Tuning - RF Mu-Tuning Kit
The secret of the
superior performance of the FT DX 9000/FT-2000 series radios on the
lower bands is the RF µ-Tuning system; the very same system is now
available as an option for the FT-950!
On the lower
Amateur bands, the signal voltages impinging on a receiver can create
noise and intermodulation effects that can cover up weak signals
you're trying to pull through. Three modules (MTU-160, MTU-80/40, and
MTU-30/20) are available – these modules may be connected
externally with no internal modification required!
The RF µ-Tuning
filters utilize a stack of large 1.1" Ni-Zn Ferrite cores,
driven through a silver-plated coil assembly by a precision stepper
motor. The resulting high Q (typically over 300) provides a very
steep resonance peak near your operating frequency. (On the 160 m
band, typically -3DB@?12 kHz, -30DB@?450 kHz.) And the 3rd order
Intercept Point (IP3) is increased by 4 dB with the RF µ-Tuning
system.
The ferrite cores
utilized in the RF µ-Tune filters are driven by a high-resolution,
high torque stepper motor (4-phase unipolar motor/2-phase
magnetization system) with angular resolution of 1.8deg. The synchro
belt drive has an estimated lifetime of more than 10,000 hours of
actual operation. For 160-meter operation, the ferrite core diameter
is a full 2.2"! The RF µ-Tune system tracks your operating
frequency, although you can chose to manually skew the frequency
response when special interference conditions require it.
If you turn the
RF µ-Tune system off when leaving your frequency or QSYing to other
bands, the RF µ-Tune system will be re-centering the RF µ-Tune
filter on your current operating frequency when the RF µ-Tune is
re-engaged.
World Famous
Yaesu Flywheel-effect Oversized High-quality Main Tuning Dial
The front panel's
oversized 2.67" (58 mm) Main Tuning Knob is crafted using a
heavy brass alloy (knob weight: 6.7 oz./185 g) for easy
flywheel-effect frequency excursions or precision tuning of weak
digital signals, thanks to the precision magnetic rotary-encoder
tuning mechanism coupled to the Main Tuning Knob.
The torque of the
tuning knob shaft may be adjusted by rotating the Main tuning dial
while holding the dial skirt for just the right amount of drag you
prefer. All it will take is one spin of the dial for you to know that
you are in command of a serious radio.
The Main Tuning
Dial is the same structure used for the FT DX 9000/ FT-2000 series
radios utilizing traditional dial structure along with a specially
designed rotating skirt that creates a small air gap. This air gap
reduces sweat accumulation on the operator's fingertips, enhancing
tuning precision during long operating sessions.
Triple-conversion
super-heterodyne receiver
Triple-conversion
super-heterodyne receiver architecture using 69.450MHz 1st IF with
the powerful 1st IF 3kHz/6kHz/15kHz selectable roofing filters (MCF),
you will enjoy the advanced technology of the FT-950's multi-function
30 kHz 32-bit Floating Point IF DSP. The triple-conversion design
features a 1st IF of 69.45 MHz, a 2nd IF of 450 kHz, and a 3rd IF of
30 kHz (FM: 24 kHz), with each stage's advanced filtering protecting
the stages to follow from unwanted signal voltage, leading to a
quiet, ultra-robust receiver with impeccable total system performance
Yaesu 32-bit
floating point IF DSP
The Yaesu 32-bit
floating point IF DSP - legendary known and reputed among the serious
DXers and enthusiasts - will give you the edge over all other
DSP-based radios
The IF Digital
Signal Processing system of the FT-950 is based on the TI TMS320C6713
32-bit floating point DSP IC. All DSP superb functions can be
selected by simply rotating the SELECT dial located to the left side
of the main dial.
Robust
Receiver Front End
The RF amplifier
stage is designed for low and high intercept, utilizing two strong
series-connected 2SC3356 bipolar transistors with negative feedback
for consistent, repeatable performance. The low noise figure and
carefully-controlled stage gains ensures that only the precise amount
of gain needed is actually utilized. And the front-panel "IPO"
switch lets you select direct feed to the first mixer (IPO), Preamp 1
(RF AMP1), or Preamp 2 (RF AMP2) which adds the second preamplifier
stage in series, according to the antenna in use and the noise and
interference conditions present at the time.
IPO (Intercept
Point Optimization) is the function that you can set the total front
end gain to optimize RF stage performance. The ultra-strong first
mixer of the FT-950 features SPM5001 FETs in an active,
doubly-balanced configuration optimized for a severe multi-signal
environment. The active design results in no net loss in the mixer
circuit itself, simultaneously eliminating the need for
pre-amplification prior to direct feed of received signals to the
first mixer.
Digital PLL
for Outstanding Local Oscillator Performance
The receiver
section exhibits strong-signal-handling capabilities in multi-signal
environments by employing an essential ultra-low-noise local
oscillator system that produces a very clean first IF signal. The
spurious-free dynamic range and close-in blocking performance are
substantially enhanced with the high Carrier-to-Noise (C/N) ratio of
the FT-950 high-speed digital PLL.
Three (3)
Factory Installed 1st IF Roofing Filters
The 69.450 first
IF stage features three/3 roofing filters (15 kHz, 6 kHz, and 3 kHz)
optimized by mode for best performance on today?s most crowded bands.
Each roofing filter is a four-pole, fundamental-mode monolithic
crystal filter design to produce excellent shape factor.
Under any busy
band conditions, the roofing filters positioned right after the first
mixer of the FT-950 are designed to and definitely improve the
3rd-Order Intercept Point performance for all stages that follow.
CONTOUR
Control function with natural analog touch
The incredibly
sharp "brick wall" filters of the IF DSP system can expose
characteristics of incoming signals that you have never heard before;
not all of them are really pleasant to listen to all of the time.
But, using the CONTOUR control, you can roll off low-frequency or
high-frequency components so as to shape the receiver passband
differently, or null out part of the mid-range area, with continuous
adjustment throughout the passband. By nulling out interfering or
irrelevant frequency components, the desired frequency components
will significantly rise out of the background noise, improving
fidelity and signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio.
World-renowned
variable IF WIDTH and IF SHIFT Interference Reduction Systems
While leaving the
pitch of the incoming signal and bandwidth of the IF passband
unchanged, the IF Shift system allows you to vary the actual passband
higher or lower in frequency, eliminating interference that you
encounter outside the passband. You can also improve your reception
by chosing to narrow the bandwidth of the IF SHIFT function and then
varying the passband with the IF SHIFT by selecting these settings
with the SELECT dial. (The IF SHIFT control is concentric with the IF
WIDTH control.) The variable IF WIDTH system has a default center
bandwidth of 2.4 kHz for SSB and CW, and 500 Hz for RTTY and PSK
operation. By simply rotating the IF WIDTH control counterclockwise,
the passband may be reduced to as little as 500 Hz (or 1.8 kHz on
SSB). And if you like to listen in a wider bandwidth for greater
fidelity on SSB, the SSB bandwidth may be expanded to 3000 Hz to
possibly improve the audio-sound of the station you are working. And
for improved AM Broadcast reception, you may use the one-touch NAR
function to toggle between 9 kHz (wide) and 6 kHz (narrow), depending
on interference, for better audio. While the IF WIDTH is generally
used for setting the IF DSP bandwidths, you may also utilize the
one-touch NAR (Narrow) function to reduce the passband narrower to
your pre-selected center bandwidth (SSB: selections available from
200/400/600/850/1100/1350/1500/1650/1800 Hz CW: selections available
from 100/200/ 300/400/500 Hz, Factory preset default : 1800 Hz/SSB,
500 Hz/CW, 300 Hz/RTTY and PSK).
IF Noise
Blanker
The IF Noise
Blanker is ideal for suppression of automotive ignition noise, and it
may be utilized in conjunction with the Digital Noise Reduction
system, or by itself. The IF Noise Blanker gain can be precisely
adjusted via a menu for the blanking level to be applied.
DSP Digital
Noise Reduction
For reduction of
random noise types, the FT-950 utilizes a powerful Digital Noise
Reduction filter that contains fifteen different noise analysis
parameters specially created after thousands of hours of on-the-air
testing. You may choose any of these parameters to effectively reduce
most noise under nearly any conditions at any given time.
Manual IF
Notch and Beat-reducing Automatic Digital Notch Filter (DNF)
Selecting the
NOTCH function with the SELECT dial will enable the FT-950's very
high “Q” IF Notch, producing a deep notching effect typically in
excess of 70 dB. Using the Menu mode to choose the "digital"
NOTCH function, a uniquely designed DSP Auto Notch (DNF) filter can
also be engaged independently from the "manual" Notch
function, to reduce multiple carriers within the passband
Analog-sounding
High-quality Digital SSB Modulation
The YAESU DSP
digital modulation technique not only provides an analog-sounding
high-quality digital SSB modulation envelope, but also allows the
transmission bandwidth to be adjusted by the operator.
Transmit
Monitor Feature
The IF
Transmission Monitor allows you to listen to accurate reproduction of
the transmitter's IF signal for making precise adjustments to the
Parametric Equalizer, SSB Bandwidth, and/or Speech Processor. The
Monitor Level may be adjusted from the front panel.
Renowned YAESU
Speech Processor for that Contest or DX Pile-up Punch
The power of IF
DSP is brought to the world of Speech Processing with the powerful
new DSP Speech Processor design incorporated into the FT-950. The
built-in Speech Processor is designed to obtain the optimum frequency
response to increase intelligibility at the receiving side of a
difficult path. The compression level for the Speech processor can be
adjusted from the menu to obtain the best performance during your DX
pile-up operation or when propagation conditions vary.
Parametric
Microphone Equalizer
Within each of
the three bands (low-frequency, mid-range, and high-frequency)
provided, you may adjust the center frequency of the equalization,
the bandwidth over which the equalization is applied, and the
amplitude (either peaking or nulling) within that range. Enjoy high
quality transmission audio you set to your specific preference!
Built-in TCXO
for State-of-the-Art Stability
A highly-stable
Temperature-Compensated Crystal Oscillator (TCXO) is built into the
FT-950, providing 0.5 ppm stability at room temperature, and better
than 1 ppm stability over an ambient temperature range of 14 to 122
deg F (-10 to +50 deg C), making the FT-950 ideal for your PSK31, EME
or other applications requiring high stability.
CW Zero-in
Feature
The sidetone
generated when you transmit (as set by the CW Pitch selection from
the menu with a range of 300-1050 Hz) allows you to match that pitch
to that of an incoming signal perfectly. As you tune closer to that
pitch, the CW Tuning Indicator (selected in the menu to enable this
tuning function to change the Clarifier Display to the CW Tuning
Display) provides a visual and graphical depiction of the tuning
process, with a marker moving towards the center of the scale display
when the incoming signal is precisely aligned with yours.
CW Spot
Feature
The CW SPOT
switch engages a spotting tone that matches the offset of your
transmitted signal (as set by the CW Pitch selection), allowing you
to match that pitch to that of an incoming signal perfectly. The CW
