Dual Bander YAESU FT-5200 Modifications for wideband RX/TX VHF/UHF coverage
and Cross-band Repeater operation.
===============================================================================
First locate the 20 jumpers on the control Unit of the FT-5200.
Then short jumpers 1-2-3-6-7 .
Some jumpers are still shorted depending upon the country version.
Remove the Jumper number 17 for cross-band operation .
For resetting the unit press D/MR -- F/W -- REV buttons in the same time
and switch on the transceiver.
The display must show now 300.000 on the right and 000.000 on the left .
You must now program the lower and upper bands limits on RX and TX as follows:
After resetting the channel number digit on the left of the display is
showing a ""1"" blinking ..
With the vfo knob and the MHZ button increment from 000.000 to the desired
lower VHF frequency with 1 Mhz steps . The press the D/MR button to lock
the frequency . Now the channel digit shows a blinkin""2"". Increment
the display to obtain the VHF upper limit . Press again D/MR to lock the
frequency and obtain a ""3"" digit channel blinking .. Increment the display
value with the vfo knob to fix the TX VHF lower limit . Push D/MR to lock
the frequency . The digit channel is blinking with number ""4"" and program
the upper TX transmit limit . Press again D/MR , the display is now
reversed from left to right and program the UHF TX/RX limits with the same
procedure used for teh VHF band.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For cross-band operation , press the RPT button when swithching ON the
tranceiver . Adjust the audio level with the volume control and balance .
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For wideband Uhf RX operation the frond end coils with metallic cores
must be realigned to spread the sensitivity of the receiver. A swept
oscillator with scope should be employed eventually .
