Yaesu FT-2000 Audio Settings -
How to make the FT-2000 sound clear and clean
[03/Feb/2008]

I have enjoyed the Yaesu FT-2000 HF/50 MHz rig for 16 months now. Considered the price, the rig offers a range of versatile features - a range of features not found in many other rigs. It does offer a lot of flexibility - both on receive and transmit, on SSB and CW. On SSB it gives you so much flexibility that many amateurs have a hard time getting the signal sound clean and clear. See the the rest of the article.
