Yaesu FT-450D Amateur Ham HF/50MHz Transceiver Radio CIB barely used with extras. Also includes HEIL HM-12 full range microphone – unused with cable. Also includes MFJ Plug & Play IntelliTuner MFJ-939 with connectors and pigtail. Bought new from Ham Radio Outlet 8/2017, taken out of box to setup, and then never used. I received a question about mods and such. I bought this radio new. It has had no modifications. Also, here is some information from the manufacturers. Plug & Play Auto Tuner. W/ Cable, Yaesu 950/450/891. You wont even know its there. MFJ-939I/K/Y automatically tunes your antenna as you tune your radio. SWR is just always low. Tunes your coax fed or random wire antennas 1.8-30 MHz from 2 Watts QRP to full 200 Watts SSB/CW. Matches 6-1600 Ohms (SWR up to 32:1) — thats a 50% wider matching range than competing products that are less capable and higher priced. And its made in the USA. Highly intelligent, ultra-fast tuning! As youre ragchewing, contesting or DXing, the MFJ-939 is learning your antenna and the way you operate and storing all this in its 20,000 memories. The more you use it, the more it learns. Measure & Compute = Instant Match MFJ-939 uniquely measures your antennas complex impedance (R, X), computes the L-network and snaps in needed components for instant matching. AdaptiveSearch AdaptiveSearch determines a sub-set of all solutions that can provide a safe match and searches only that subset giving you an ultra fast match. Others search slowly through all solutions. InstantRecall InstantRecall first checks its memory to see if you have operated this frequency before. If so, tuning is instantaneous and youre ready to go! MFJ VirtualAntenna Memory MFJ exclusive VirtualAntenna Memory system gives you 8 antenna memory banks of 2500 memories each. You can use an antenna switch to select up to 8 antennas and assign each antenna its own 2500 memories! 4 Times More Solutions and Faster! MFJ has 256 values each of capacitance and inductance for 131,072 matching solutions giving you a finely tuned very low SWR. That`s 4 times the 32,768 solutions of competitors using only 128 L/C values each! Don`t be fooled by competing products claiming fast search times — if you have a quarter of the matching solutions, of course, it takes less time to finish but it`s not faster. MFJ`s faster speed comes from advanced technology and software algorithms not from fewer solutions. Audio SWR Meter An Audio SWR meter beeps when SWR. Audible & Visible Diagnostic messages. Heavy-Duty Components Heavy-duty L-network: 10 Amp/1000V relays, RF duty silver mica caps wont burn up. Safe, reliable, continuous 200W SSB/CW. As Small as Your Radio Tiny 6 1/2W x 2 7/8H x 8 3/8D. SO-39s, random wire ant. Super Versatile Truly Plug & Play! No settings, only one cable to plug in! Order MFJ-939I, Icom; MFJ-939K, Ken; MFJ-939Y, Yaesu. Specify Yaesu: FT-100/450/950/ 857/897/1000MP/9000/2000 or other. If you get a new transceiver, simply order a new Plug and Play cable. Works with ALL older rigs, classic transmitters, Flex, Elecraft, Tentec, QRP, others. Auto tune antenna — touch tune button on any MFJ-939I/K/Y for any rig. The new HM-12 microphone is designed specifically for amateur radio communications. The high output full range Genesis dynamic element is designed to work with just about every amateur radio low impedance transmitter. The element is mounted in a unique internal shock mount and exhibits nearly 35 dB of rear rejection, which reduces background and ambient noise from the transmitted signal. The Heil HM12 exhibits a very natural audio response from 80Hz 14 kHz. The soft touch PTT switch is wired to pins 3 and 4 for transmitter control with the microphone signal fed to pins 1 and 2 of the four-pin XLR. The Heil HM -12 uses the HEIL CC-1 Connecting Cables. The HM-12 microphone has an internal foam windscreen and includes a 5/8-27 microphone clip that is designed for our booms and desk stands.

The FT 450D is equipped with classically designed Main Dial and Knobs giving it the desirable “Big Radio” feel. 400 MHz built-in IF DSP. Fast and robust IF DSP processing! The FT-450D includes a 10 kHz bandwidth Roofing Filter in the 67.899 MHz 1st IF, right after the 1st Mixer. This filter provides narrow-band selectivity to protect the following IF and DSP stages a feature rarely found in rigs in this price range! IF Shift & Width. The FT-450D IF Width and IF Shift features are the primary tools you will use for best interference reduction. After narrowing the bandwidth (Width) and/or adjusting the center of the passband (Shift), the Contour control (see details of this feature below) may also yield additional signal-enhancement benefits on the net residual bandwidth. Whats more, the IF Notch Filter (see details of this feature below) may also be utilized in conjunction with the three other filter systems to significant advantage. The IF WIDTH tuning system allows you to vary the width of the DSP IF passband to eliminate interference. Moreover, the bandwidth may actually be expanded from its default setting, should you wish to enhance incoming signal fidelity when interference on the band is low. The IF WIDTH is varied in steps: SSB – 1.8/2.4/3.0 kHz. FM – 2.5/5.0. CW – 0.5/1.8/2.4 kHz. The IF SHIFT tuning system allows you to vary the DSP filter passband higher or lower, without changing the pitch of the incoming Signal to reduce or eliminate interference. Because the carrier tuning frequency is not varied, there is no need to re-tune the operating frequency when eliminating the interference. The total passband tuning range for the IF Shift system is ±1 kHz. Rotate the [SHIFT] knob to the left or right to reduce the interference. You may observe the position of the passband in the SHIFT indicator of the DSP Graphic Display portion of the LCD front panel main display. The Contour filtering system provides a gentle shaping of the IF filter pass band to suppress or enhance particular frequency components, thus improving the sound and/or readability of a received signal. The DSP Contour filter is a unique capability of the receiver, providing either Nulling or Peaking of tunable segments of the receiver passband to suppress interference or excessive frequency components on an incoming signal, or to peak those tunable frequency segments. The amount of Nulling / Peaking and the bandwidth over which it is applied are adjustable via the Menu. The peak position of the contour filter is graphically depicted in the CONTOUR indicator of the DSP Graphic Display portion of the LCD front panel main display. SPECIAL FILTERING NOTE: The steep slopes of the DSP filtering can, when adjusted aggressively, impart an unnatural sound to an incoming signal. Often, a narrow bandwidth is not the key to improving copy. The incoming signal itself may have undesirable or excessive frequency components. By judicious use of the Contour filter, the shoulder of the passband response may be altered, or components removed from within the passband, allowing the desired signal to rise above the background noise and interference in a manner not obtainable with other filtering systems. The IF Notch filter is a highly effective system that allows you to slice out an interfering beat note or other carrier signal from inside the receiver passband. You may observe the graphically depicted peak position of the IF Notch filter in the NOTCH indicator of the DSP Graphic Display portion of the LCD front panel main display. DNR – Digital Noise Reduction. The Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) feature utilizes eleven (11) different mathematical algorithms to analyze and suppress different noise profiles encountered on the HF/50 MHz bands. You get to choose the selection that provides the best noise suppression. The DSPs Digital Noise Reduction (DNR) system is designed to reduce the level of random noise found on the HF and 50 MHz bands. It is especially effective during SSB operation. Any of eleven different noise-reduction algorithms can be selected. Each of these algorithms was created for dealing with a different noise profile. You will want to experiment with the DNR system to find the best setting according to the noise currently being experienced that concurrently will allow the signal to rise up out of the noise. The FT-450D Manual Notch Filter is a highly-effective system that slices out an interfering beat tone/signal. Lots of receiver frequency versatility provided by an easy to engage Clarifier. IPO/ 20 dB ATT Built-in. The FT 450D includes all the gain you will need all the way up to 50MHz. For lower HF bands where too much gain can lead to receiver issues, you can easily adjust the gain from the front panel. When in split frequency mode, depressing the TXW button lets you listen to the frequency you have selected for transmitting. Record and playback up to 20 seconds of audio! Custom set your rig to match your voice characteristics for maximum power punch on the band. The FT 450D comes packed with all the CW operating features one could ever ask for! Narrow CW IF Filters. Terrific CW selectivity provided by 300Hz, 500Hz, and 2.4kHz CW IF Filters. The Built-In Electronic Keyer speed is adjustable from 4 to 60 WPM.
