Doug is a fantastic resource for FTDX-10 owners/operators and HAM radio in general. In fact, I do not even have my license and yet I have been binge watching his videos for the past few weeks. I figured that the Yaesu FTDX-10 would be the _perfect_ 'one and done' rig. It would also happen to be my only radio for the foreseeable future as I have no plans on setting up an entire shack. My wife and I merely want a corner of our new home to be designated for our radio(s). (Plural because we have the ubiquitous FT-60 HT's as well). Not to mention, it [FTDX-10] seems to be the _only_ newer radio that is currently in-stock at all the major retail outlets. I grow tired of waiting for the 7300 and/or the 991A. Like I have premised before and elsewhere. I like to explore these radios strictly on the RX end before I even consider taking my test(s). This often rubs people the wrong way who _insist_ that I acquire the proper licensing *before* purchasing any radios. I surmise these are the same people who do not believe in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights or due process. We call them Fudds in the 2A community but I digress. My favorite analogical reply is simply - "You do not need a drivers license to build your own hot rod." Normally, I loathe collaborations regardless of which community we are referring too. However, I have to say (in this instance) that I truly appreciate this video. I can honestly say that there is not a single video that Doug (N4HNH) produces where I walk away without learning something. He is a great teacher and I hope he continues to reach more people. Stay classy my friends.

I cannot say how much I appreciate Doug and his many videos on the FTdx10. It's what jump-started me when I bought this radio. So, thank you DOUG! And, thank you JASON for hosting Doug. I paid close attention to the entire video. KK5DON

This video needs more views. N4HNH's explanations are nearly as good and clear as Rob Sherwood's. This should be plastered all over QRZ and force fed to the multitudes of ignorant elitists that propagate that site and don't understand adjusting receive audio, and that say that almost every radio ever made is 'noisy'. This video is so underrated. Please do a Receiver Deep Dive on the Icom 7300!

IPO has been in Yaesu radios for years and it is very effective. Operators simply do not read their radio manuals fully before using them. You still see videos on youtube where people are showing their radios with s9 noise yet their radios are not showing their IPO on especially on frequencies below 14mhz.

@HamRadio2 3 года назад

@jjsoundguy 2 года назад

Being an audio engineer and a broadcast engineer I must suggest a correction. The filtering in the audio section as shown is in fact a "CUT" not a "SHELF". If it was a shelf filter you would only have a DB adjustment as opposed to a DB per octave adjustment. He properly stated the filter "SKIRT" slope changed. A skirt and a shelf filter are mutually exclusive. I am personally lusting for a FTDX10.

@KF5NRU 2 года назад

So I feel like I did learn a lot, but I also feel like we spent 40min talking about how to make your radio as narrow as possible for CW purposes. Not how to set up your radio to sound good anywhere else.

@dannyzwolf4546 Год назад

Turning ipo on to turn the pre-amp off is counterintuitive

@brucecash3939 Год назад

Great video. I have a microphone question. Can you use and older mic. like a Yaesu MD-100 with FTdx10? I have one and was hoping it would be compatible. The pinout looks like it would or do you have any recommendations for a desk microphone for this transceiver. Thanks for doing all the FTdx10 videos. Very informative.

@vironpayne3405 2 года назад

The first thing you do is turn off that great high sensitivity reciever preamp... that you dream off being to use in an RFI free environment. Then turn down the RF gain to all but kill the noise. Its QRP 101. :)

@dennisschultz1175 2 года назад

Will there be a follow up on transmit settings like Doug mentioned?

@EdinGacic 2 года назад

it is a bit wrong to say that sloping 6db/oct will help noise floor - what I think is better is if you use DNR is to leave entire range so the cleaning sounds better and not muffled - so no its not helping the noise floor directly but maybe as perception - Also it depends on the speakers response freq and other factors - I think default is better if you use Noise Reduction. But I understand what he was saying. I am considering this radio it is really good price for what it delivers.

@tomlewis2200 2 года назад

By "shelving" regarding high cut and low cut, these are actually low pass and high pass filters respectively with selectable slopes, either 6dB or 18dB per octave. There are not shelving filters.

@RudixSA 7 месяцев назад

IPO on is not quite the same as pre-amp off! On the FTdx-5000 there are 2 different IPO settings. The RF path into the receiver differs with IPO on from just not having a pre-amp on as can be seen on the 5000. Also IPO has been around for a long time, way before SDR radios.

@HamRadio2 7 месяцев назад

This isn't an FTDX-5000 radio so it's possible that it isn't the same for the FTDX-10

Suggest Not using IPO amp 1 or 2 below 18mhz. rx is already hot,having ipo on = allot more rx noise.. 20 40 60 80 160m is usually noisey.and need some attenuation..

@JacobNewmen 5 месяцев назад

Nikdy jsem nemyslel, že DX10 je tak dobrá dokud jsem jí sám nevyzkoušel na stole proti svému Icom v náročných podmínkách rušení a slabém signálu. Icom neměl žádnou šanci slyšet ten signál srozumitelně. V případě Yaesu se mi povedlo po pár minutách díky spoustě nástrojům signál převést ve srozumitelnou podobu. Vážně uvažuji, že i přestože má Icom hezčí podání signálu na display o zakoupení Yaesu kde se display úplně nepovedl podle mě, nemá poměrování atd. 73! PEACE !!

@jeffzun1255 Год назад

Great video. I have a FT DX-10 and I did all the tweaks recommended BUT I can't tell much of a difference in how the receiver sounds or any change in the noise level. So maybe if you are an audio engineer, these settings are useful but for average ham, it's just some more gadgets that Yaesu has come up with for the marketing department to use. Yaesu it seems, makes a habit of making everything as complicated as possible. Having a parametric equalizer on a HF radio is over the top AND hard to set properly. I love the radio but I think a lot of the choices and settings are a waste for an appliance operator that just wants to work some DX and rag chew. Maybe if I ever become more technically competent, I will appreciate it more, but for the average ham its overkill.

IPO= "pre-amp" off

@MrArithor 2 года назад

Bad news or ? Yaesu FTDX 101D and FTDX 10 do not use SDR receiver for RX to speaker It have SDR receiver but it is only use for the display spectrum. It have IF on 9 Mhz SDR have no IF :) SDR receiver do not have roofing filter :) SDR receiver do not have VC-TUNE as there do not have IF :þ SDR receiver is direct sampling . FTDX 101D is not direct sampling receiver or Transmitter. Kenwood TS-890S is the same as FTDX 101D, it is hybrid . Kenwood told me there use the best from old and new time for there TS 890S Again FTDX 101D is not SDR receiver, but it have SDR receiver for the spectrum display Both Yaesu FTDX 101D and Kenwood TS 890S are Hybrid SDR I would learn more about the radio before I start give it a report.

@MrArithor 2 года назад

The Down Conversion type receiver construction is similar to the FTDX5000. The first IF frequency is 9 MHz, and a low noise figure dual gate MOS FET, D-quad DBM (Double Balanced Mixer) with excellent intermodulation characteristics, is implemented in the mixer section. Narrow band SDR configuration makes it possible to use the narrow bandwidth crystal roofing filters that have the sharp shape factor. This achieves the amazing multi-signal receiving performance when confronted with the most challenging on-the-air interference situations.

@MrArithor 2 года назад

ICOM IC-7300 is 100% SDR receiver transmitter.

@dzsombliszorszita1716 2 года назад

"SDR receiver is direct sampling." No. :-) - Any radio is a Software Defined Radio if its modulation or demodulation is done by software (after an A/D conversion). - A Direct Conversion radio has really no IF, but it can be analog (synchrodyne radio, a nice adventure) or digital. - The SDR is a wider concept, it can be a hybrid with analog mixers but with A/D conversion and DSP at the opposite end to the antenna. - It would be better to call Direct Conversion radios to DDC/DUC, Digital Down Conversion/Digital Up Conversion radios here, but it is too long... Anyway, it is a subset of the SDR's. So an SDR just _can be_ a DDC/DUC radio. Providing a waterfall display also needs a DDC receiver as you say, but in these radios they are connected to the output of an IF stage of an analog or hybrid radio before the physical filters, therefore they work only on one band at a time (determined by the band pass filtering). Also, the first intermediate frequency of an analog superheterodyne receiver can be high, about 70 MHz or so, but another radios convert the signal down to 8-9 MHz first, or so (then further down), and sometimes they are flagged as down conversion, too... :-) Some radio can be switched what way to work - I don't remember now the details. Btw., TS-890 utilises an H-mode mixer for its first IF stage, it's a good question should we count it as digital or analog. :-) Also by the way: there are radios with superheterodyne stages before a full featured DDC receiver to be used as an IF receiver to squeeze out the last decibels of dynamics and selectivity on demand today. When it is not needed, DDC part of the receiver may work alone for the advantages of a DDC (and don't forget the transmitter, the possibility of pre-distortion). I don't know the name of the model, but Elecraft K4HD will do the same.
