Introduction
The FT-818 is a compact, 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-818 includes operation on the SSB, CW, AM,
FM, and Digital modes, yielding the most comprehensive performance package available
for portable operation.
Designed for use with either an external DC power source or internal batteries. The
FT-818 provides 6 watts of power output from a 13.8-Volt external power supply. When
using the SBR-32MH Ni-MH battery pack or Alkaline Battery Holder, the FT-818 will auto-
matically reduce the output power (2.5 Watts or more).
The multi-function Liquid-Crystal Display includes Blue, Amber, and Violet backlighting,
which may be disabled for battery conservation. The display includes bar-graph indication
of power output, ALC voltage, SWR, and modulation level. Also include are a number of
operating status icons, as well as the function displays for the three operating function
keys (
, , and ).
Among the advanced features of the FT-818 are many incorporated only in large base-sta-
tion transceivers. These include Dual VFOs; Split-Frequency operation; IF Shift; Clariîšżer
(“R.I.T.”); IF Noise Blanker; AGC Fast/Slow/Auto/O󰀨 selection; RF Gain and Squelch con-
trol; IPO (Intercept Point Optimization) and a receiver front-end Attenuator; AM Aircraft
reception; AM and FM Broadcast reception; VOX; Built-in Electronic Keyer; Adjustable CW
Pitch; Automatic FM Repeater Shift (ARS); Built-in CTCSS Encoder/Decoders; ARTS™
(Auto-Range Transponder System); Smart Search™ Automatic Memory Loading System;
Spectrum Scope; 200 Memories plus Home Channels and Band-limiting Memories; Al-
pha-Numeric Labeling of Memories; Automatic Power-O󰀨 (APO) and Time-Out Timer (TOT)
functions; Computer Interface capability; and Cloning capability.
We urge you to read this manual in its entirety, so as to gain a full understanding of the
amazing capability of the exciting FT-818 Portable Transceiver.
