The FT-817 is a compact, innovative multiband, multimode portable transceiver for the amateur radio HF/VHF/UHF bands. Providing coverage of the 160-10 meter bands plus the 6 m, 2 m, and 70 cm bands, the FT-817 includes operation on the SSB, CW, AM, FM, and Digital modes, yielding the most comprehensive performance package available for portable operation.
Designed for use either from an external DC power source or internal batteries, the FT-817 provides five watts of power output from a 13.8-Volt external power supply.

Band Down/Up Keys: Pressing either of these keys momentarily will cause the frequency to be moved up or down by one frequency band.
