Yaesu FTDX10 Manual
HF/50 MHz TRANSCEIVER
FTDX10
Introduction
This manual provides the technical information necessary
for servicing the FTDX10 HF/50 MHz TRANSCEIVER.
Servicing this equipment requires expertise in handling
surface-mount chip components. Attempts by non-qualied
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 cor-
rect, YAESU assumes no liability for damage that may oc-
cur as a result of typographical or other errors that may be
present. Your cooperation in pointing out any inconsisten-
cies in the technical information would be appreciated.
Important Note
This transceiver was assembled using Pb (lead) free solder, based on the RoHS specication.
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 required for compliance with the lead-free specication, and any solder with the above alloy com-
position may be used.
