Introduction
This manual provides the technical information necessary for
servicing the FT3DR/FT3DE 144/430 MHz Dual Band Digital
Transceiver.
Servicing this equipment requires expertise in handing surface-
mount chip components. Attempts by non-qualified persons
to service this equipment may result in permanent damage not
covered by the warranty, and may be illegal in some countries.
While we believe the information in this manual to be correct,
YAESU assumes no liability for damage that may occur as a
result of typographical or other errors that may be present. Your
cooperation in pointing out any inconsistencies in the technical
information would be appreciated.

Important Note
This transceiver was assembled using Pb (lead) free sol-
der, based on the RoHS specication.
Only lead-free solder (Alloy Composition: Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu)
should be used for repairs performed on this apparatus.
The solder stated above utilizes the alloy composition re-
quired for compliance with the lead-free specication, and
any solder with the above alloy composition may be used.

Introduction and Precautions
TheFT3DR/FT3DEhasbeencarefullyalignedat
thefactoryforperformanceacrossthespecified
amateur bands. Realignment should therefore
notbe necessaryexceptintheeventofacompo-
nentfailure.Allcomponentreplacement andser-
viceshouldbeperformedonlybyanauthorized
YAESUrepresentative,orthewarrantypolicymay
be voided.
Thefollowingprocedurescoverthesometimescrit-
icalandtediousadjustmentsthatarenotnormally
requiredoncethetransceiverhasleft the factory.
However,ifdamageoccursandsomepartsarere-
placed,realignment may be required. If a sudden
problemoccursduringnormaloperation,itislike-
lyduetocomponentfailure;realignmentshould
notbedoneuntilafterthefaultycomponenthas
beenreplaced.
Werecommend that servicingbeperformedonly
byauthorizedYAESUservicetechnicians,whoare
experiencedwiththecircuitryand fully equipped
for repair and alignment. Therefore, if a fault is
suspected,contactthedealerfromwhomthetrans-
ceiverwaspurchasedforinstructionsregardingre-
pair.AuthorizedYAESUservicetechniciansrealign
allcircuitsandmakecompleteperformancechecks
toensurecompliancewithfactoryspecifications
afterreplacinganyfaultycomponents.
Those who do undertake any of the following
alignmentsare cautionedto proceedat theirown
risk.Problemscausedbyunauthorizedaemptsat
realignmentare not coveredbythe warrantypol-
icy.Also,YAESUmustreservetherighttochange
circuitsandalignmentproceduresintheinterestof
improvedperformance,withoutnotifyingowners.
Underno circumstances should anyalignment be
attemptedunless the normalfunctionand opera-
tionof the transceiver areclearly understood, the
causeofthemalfunctionhasbeenclearlypinpoint-
edandanyfaultycomponentsreplaced,andthe
need for realignment determined to be absolutely
necessary.

Alignment Preparation & Precautions
A 10-W RF dummy load and in-line wattmeter
mustbeconnectedtothemainantennajackinall
proceduresthatcallfortransmission;alignment
isnotpossiblewithanantenna.Aftercomplet-
ing one step, read the next step to see if the same
test equipment is required. If not, remove the test
equipment(exceptdummyloadandwattmeter,
ifconnected)beforeproceeding.Correctalign-
mentrequiresthetransceiverandtest equipment
bemaintainedat a constantambient temperature
between68~86°F (20~30 °C).When the transceiv-
erisbroughtintotheshopfromhotorcoldair,
itshouldbeallowedsometimetocometoroom
temperature before alignment. Whenever possible,
alignmentsshouldbemadewithoscillatorshields
andcircuitboardsrmlyaxedinplace.Also,the
test equipment must be thoroughly warmed up be-
fore beginning.
Note: Signal levels in dB referred to in the alignment
procedure are based on 0 dBμ=0.5 μV (closed circuit).

Note: Remember to delete the password "AH072M"
from the Set Mode Item 7: OPENING MESSAGE when
the alignment adjustments are nished by pressing and
holding in the [GM] key for two seconds (as in step 8
above).
5. Press the [PWR]switchforonesecondstoturn
thetransceiver"OFF".
6. Press and hold in the [GM]key while powering
thetransceiver"ON"again.Thetransceiverwill
