Page 1OPERATING MANUAL
Congratulations on the purchase of your Yaesu
amateur transceiver! Whether this is your first rig, or if
Yaesu equipment is already the backbone of your sta-
tion,restassuredthatyourtransceiverwillprovidemany
hours of operating pleasure for years to come.
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field is an elite-class HF
transceiver providing exceptional performance both on
transmit and receive. The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field
is designed for the most competitive operating situa-
tions, whether you primarily operate in contest, DX, or
digital-mode environments.
Built on the foundation of the popular MARK-V FT-
1000MP transceiver, the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field
provides up to 100 Watts of power output on SSB, CW,
and FM (25 Watts AM carrier). Additionally, a Yaesu-
exclusive “Class-A” SSB operating mode provides ul-
tra-linear signal output, at a power output level of up to
25Watts.
Also new on the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field is the
IDBT(Interlocked Digital Bandwidth Tracking)System,
which automatically aligns the bandwidth of the En-
hanced Digital Signal Processing (EDSP) receiver
passbandto matchthe IF filterpassband. Thisimproves
operating efficiency by removing the extra step of mak-
ing separate analog and DSP filter adjustments. This
feature can be enabled or disabled with the press of a
button, for maximum flexibility.
And for exceptional protection from strong nearby
incoming signals, Yaesu-exclusive VRF (Variable RF
Front-End Filter) serves as a high-performance
Preselector-ideal for multi-operator contest environ-
ments. This filter is manually tuned, allowing the op-
erator to optimize sensitivity or signal rejection with the
twist of a knob.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Inaddition tothe contributionof theVRFPreselector,
superb receiver performance is a result of direct lin-
eage from the legendary FT-1000D and FT-1000MP.
New technology Direct Digital Synthesizers (two 10-bit
andthree 8-bit)areused in thelocaloscillator (alldriven
by a single TCXO master oscillator), resulting in ex-
tremely fine tuning resolution with thirteen selectable
tuning steps down to 0.625 Hz. You may select either
“Flat” or “Tuned” front end RF amplification (using four
FETs in a double push-pull, constant-gain stage), IPO
(Intercept Point Optimization) utilizing direct feed to the
first mixer, and/or three levels of RF attenuation in 6-
dB steps. The “Tuned” RF Preamplifier provides high
gain and low noise figure on the higher frequency
bands, with lower gain and greater selectivity on the
low bands, where strong-signal performance is criti-
cally important.
To battle QRM, the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field
comes equipped with a formidable defense. Fine tai-
loring of the IF passband is made possible with indi-
vidually-selected, cascaded 2nd- and 3rd-IF crystal fil-
ter banks. World-renowned Collins®mechanical 500-
Hz CW filters are available as options for the Sub Re-
ceiver2nd IF,andmain receiver3rd IF strip.An IFnotch
filter and concentric IF Shift and Width controls are
also provided. The IF Width circuit allows continuously
narrowing receiver passband by selectively moving ei-
ther the upper or lower filter skirt just as much as
needed to reduce QRM while still preserving the maxi-
mum usable bandwidth. This extensive analog IF fil-
tering protects the EDSP circuits that follow it, ensur-
ing unmatched performance during crowded band con-
ditions.

Yaesu’s Enhanced Digital Signal Processing
(EDSP)circuitry,pioneered in theFT-1000MP,provides
a wide array of interference-rejection and signal-
customization features. On receive, three different sig-
nal “Contour” enhancements, in addition to narrow-
bandwidth peaking filters for CW and Data modes, help
dig out weak signals from the noise. Combined with
the EDSP Auto-Notch and Noise Reduction circuits,
the IF analog filters and EDSP response Contours are
without peer in the Amateur Radio industry for signal
enhancement. On transmit, the EDSP Microphone
Equalizer allows matching of the transmitter’s audio
response to your voice’s pattern, thereby maximizing
useful power output in the SSB envelope.
Advanced features include Dual Receive, Direct
Keyboard Frequency Entry and Band Change, RF
Speech Processor, RF Monitor for Voice modes, CW
Pitch control, CW Spot switch, Full CW QSK, adjust-
able IF Noise Blanker, Synchronous Tuning for AM,
and all-mode Squelch. And the Yaesu-exclusive
Shuttle-Jog tuning ring provides a spring-loaded
manual scanning tool, perfect for sweeping across a
band as you take a quick look for activity.
Frequency setup is extraordinarily simple on the
MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field. Besides direct frequency
entry for both the Main and Sub VFOs, separate keys
are provided for band selection, and each band key
accesses two independent VFO frequency/mode/filter
settings per band, so you can establish separate VFO
settings for two different parts of each band. The Sub
VFO has its own banks of VFOs for each band, and
you may copy frequencies from the Main to the Sub
VFO, or swap frequencies between the two, with a
single button push. The two VFOs allow simultaneous
receptionanddisplayof twodifferentfrequencies,even
in different modes and with different IF bandwidths.
Receiver audio can be completely or partially mixed,
or monitored separately in each ear.
In addition, 99 scannable memories are provided,
each of which stores its own mode and IF filter selec-
tion, in addition to frequency, Clarifier offset, and scan-
skip status. What’s more, five quick-recall (“QMB”)
memories can instantly store operational settings at
the push of a button.
The built-in automatic antenna tuner includes 39
memories of its own, automatically storing antenna
matching settings for quick automatic recall later.
A unique feature of the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field
is the rear panel’s “REMOTE” jack, a multi-featured
port which allows a number of possible control func-
tions. When connected to the optional FH-1 Keypad
(or a home-made keypad), the REMOTE jack may be
used as a control pad for the contest message keyer,
or for memory/VFO control of the Main or Sub receiver.
Interfacing for digital modes is extremely simple with
the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field, thanks to dedicated
AFSK and FSK connection jacks on the rear panel.
Optimization of the filter passbands, EDSP settings,
carrier insertion point, and display offset are all pos-
sible via the Menu programming system.
The Yaesu CAT system provides a direct link to
the transceiver CPU for computer control and
customization of tuning, scanning and other operating
functions. The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field includes a
built-in data level converter for direction connection to
a personal computer serial port. Yaesu products are
supported by most all of the leading contest and DX
logging programs, and the programming protocol is in-
cluded in this manual, if you wish to write your own
software!
Special options for the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field
include the TCXO-6 Temperature Compensated Crys-
tal Oscillator module, and a wide selection of IF filters
to complement the four already installed as standard.
External options include the DVS-2 Digital Voice Re-
corder; SP-8 External Loudspeaker with optional LL-7
Phone Patch module; YH-77STA Stereo Headset;FH-
1Remote Control Keypad;MD-100A8X Desktop Micro-
phone; and the MD-200A8X Ultra-High-Fidelity Desk-
top Microphone. Rounding out your Yaesu station, the
VL-1000 1 KW Linear Amplifier is specifically designed
to match your MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field,providingthe
convenience of fully automatic band change along with
1000 Watts of clean power output.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Before initiating the installation of yourMARK-V
FT-
1000MP
Field transceiver, please take the time to re-
view the following safety guidelines.
POWER CONNECTIONS
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field can be operated
from either AC or DC power sources.
When making AC connections to your house wir-
ing, be certain that the voltage at the AC wall outlet
matchesthe voltagelabelon the rearpanelof thetrans-
ceiver.
If you are connecting to a 13.8 Volt DC source, use
the optional E-DC-20 DC Power Cable, and be certain
toobserve theproper polarity whenconnecting toyour
DC power supply. Connect the RED power cable lead
to the POSITIVE (+) terminal of the DC source, and
the BLACK power cable lead to the NEGATIVE (–)
terminal.
GROUND CONNECTIONS
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field HF transceiver, like
any other HF communications apparatus, requires an
effective ground system for maximum electrical safety
andbest communicationseffectiveness.A goodground
system can contribute to station efficiency in a number
ofways:
rIt can minimize the possibility of electrical shock to
theoperator.
rIt can minimize RF currents flowing on the shield of
the coaxial cable andthechassisofthe transceiver;
such currents may lead to radiationwhichcancause
interference to home entertainment devicesorlabo-
ratory test equipment.
rItcan minimizethe possibilityof erratictransceiver/
accessory operation caused by RF feedback and/
or improper current flow through logic devices.
An effective earth ground system make take sev-
eral forms; for a more complete discussion, see an
appropriate RF engineering text. The information be-
low is intended only as a guideline.
Typically, the ground connection consists of one or
more copper-clad steel rods, driven into the ground. If
multiple ground rods are used, they should be posi-
tioned in a “V” configuration, and bonded together at
the apex of the “V” which is nearest the station loca-
tion.Useaheavy,braided cable (suchasthediscarded
shield from type RG-213 coaxial cable) and strong
cable clamps to secure the braided cable(s) to the
ground rods. Be sure to weatherproof the connections
to ensure many years of reliable service. Use the same
type of heavy, braided cable for the connections to the
station ground bus (described below).
Inside the station, a common ground bus consist-
ing of a copper pipe of at least 25 mm (1”) diameter
should be used. An alternative station ground bus may
consistofawidecopperplate(single-sidedcircuitboard
material is ideal) secured to the bottom of the operat-
ing desk. Grounding connections from individual de-
vices such as transceivers, power supplies, and data
communications devices (TNCs, etc.) should be made
directly to the ground bus using a heavy, braided cable.
Do not make ground connections from one electri-
cal device to another, and thence to the ground bus.
This so-called “Daisy-Chain” grounding technique may
nullify any attempt at effective radio frequency ground-
ing. See the drawing below for examples of proper
grounding techniques.
Inspect the ground system – inside the station as
well as outside – on a regular basis so as to ensure
maximum performance and safety.
Besides following the above guidelines carefully,
note that household or industrial gas lines mustnever
be used in an attempt to establish an electrical ground.
Cold water pipes may, in some instances, help in the
grounding effort, but gas lines represent a significant
explosion hazard, and must never be used.

ELECTRICAL SHOCK PREVENTION
Be certain that all station wiring is properly insu-
lated so as to prevent short-circuits which could dam-
age this transceiver and/or accessories connected to
it. Be sure to protect power cables from damage due
to abrasion by ensuring that they cannot be walked
upon nor crushed under rolling chairs, etc. Never route
power cables near sharp metallic edges which might
cut through protective insulation.
Never spill liquids into this transceiver, and do not
drop sharp metallic objects into the transceiver enclo-
sure. Electrical shock may result when you attempt to
remove the object.
Unsupervised children should be kept away from
any electrical apparatus such as the MARK-V
FT-
1000MP
Field transceiver and its accessories.
ANTENNA PRECAUTIONS
Always install antennas such that they can never
come in contact with outdoor power lines in the event
of a catastrophic antenna support or power line sup-
port structure failure. An adequate safety margin is
usually provided by separating power lines from the
antenna and its support structure [1.5 times the height
of the support] plus [the length of any antenna or guy
wires attached to the support] plus [the height of the
power line support pole].
Ground the antenna support structure adequately,
so as to dissipate energy absorbed during a lightning
strike. Install appropriate lightning arrestors in the an-
tenna lead-in and rotator cable (if used) according to
the arrestor’s instructions.
In the event of an approaching electrical storm, dis-
connect all antenna lead-in, rotator control, and power
cables completely from the station, but only if the
storm is not immediately in your area. Do not allow
disconnected cables to touch the case of yourMARK-
V
FT-1000MP
Field transceiveroraccessories,aslight-
ning can easily jump from the cable to the circuitry of
yourtransceiver viathecase,causing irreparabledam-
age. If a lightning storm is in progress in your immedi-
ate area, do not attempt to disconnect the cables, as
you could be killed instantly should lightning strike your
antenna, tower, or a nearby power line.
If a vertical antenna is used, be certain that humans
and/or pets or farm animals are kept away both from
the radiating element (to prevent electrical shock and
RF exposure danger) and the ground system (in the
event of an electrical storm). The buried radials of a
ground-mounted vertical antenna can carry lethal volt-
ages outward from the center of the antenna in the
event of a direct lightning strike.
RF FIELD EXPOSURE ADVISORY&
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY
This transceiver is capable of power output in ex-
cess of 50 Watts, so customers in the United States
may be required to demonstrate compliance with Fed-
eral Communications Commission (FCC) regulations
concerning maximum permissible exposure to radio
frequency energy. Compliance is based on the actual
power output used, feedline loss, antenna type and
height, and other factors which can only be evaluated
as a system. Information regarding these regulations
may be available from your Dealer, your local radio
club, from the FCC directly (press releases and other
informationcanbefoundon the FCC’ssiteontheWorld
WideWebat<http://www.fcc.gov>),or from theAmeri-
canRadioRelayLeague, Inc. (225MainSt.,Newington
CT06111or<http://www.arrl.org>).
Remembertore-evaluate yourstation’scompliance
with these regulations during portable operations such
asField Dayor special-eventstations.
Regarding electromagnetic compatibility: if this
transceiver is used with, or in the vicinity of, a com-
puter or computer-driven accessories, you may need
to experiment with grounding and/or Radio Frequency
Interference (RFI) suppression devices (such as fer-
rite cores) to minimize interference to your communi-
cations caused by energy from the computer. Com-
puter-generated RFI is usually a result of inadequate
shielding of the computer’s cabinet or I/O and periph-
eral connections. While computer equipment may
“comply” with RF emission standards, this does not
ensure that sensitive amateur radio receivers will not
experience interference from the device!
Be certain to use only shielded cables for TNC-to-
Transceiver connections. You may need to install AC
linefilterson thepowercord(s)of the suspectedequip-
ment, and decoupling ferrite toroidal chokes may be
requiredon interconnectingpatch/datacables.As alast
resort, you can try installing additional shielding within
the computer’s case, using appropriate conductive
mesh or conductive shielding tape. Especially check
“RF holes” where plastic is used for cabinet front pan-
els.
For further information, consult amateur radio ref-
erenceguidesandpublicationsrelatingtoRFIsuppres-
siontechniques.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Page 9OPERATING MANUAL
PRELIMINARYINSPECTION
Inspect the transceiver upon opening the packing
carton. Check that all controls and switches work freely,
and inspect the cabinet for any damage. Ensure the
accessory fuses and plugs pictured on page 4 are in-
cluded. If any damage is found, document it completely,
and contact the shipping company (or dealer, if you
purchased it over-the-counter) right away. Save the
packing materials in case you need to return the set
for service. If you have purchased optional internal
accessories separately, install them as described on
page112.
POWER CONNECTIONS
Before connecting AC power, check the label on
the rear panel which indicates the AC mains voltage
for which your transceiver is currently set. If the volt-
age on this label does not match your AC mains volt-
age, a switch on the internal power supply in the trans-
ceiver must be moved, and the fuse must be changed
(U.S.A. users only). See page 116 for more informa-
tion and details.
After making certain the AC voltage for which the
transceiveris setmatches your mainsvoltage, andthat
the correct fuse is installed in the fuse holder, connect
the supplied AC power cord between the 3-pin ~AC IN
jack on the rear panel and the AC wall outlet.
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field can also be oper-
ated from 13.8 Volts DC, negative ground, with any
well-regulated DC source being capable of providing
22 Amperes of continuous current.
If you are connecting to a DC source, use the op-
tional E-DC-20 DC Power Cable (with 25-A fuse). Con-
nect the RED power cable lead to the POSITIVE (+)
terminal of the DC source, and the BLACK power cable
lead to the NEGATIVE (–) terminal, then connect the
DC plug from the E-DC-20 to the ...
–DC IN jack on the
rearpanel.
Warning: Our warranty does not cover damage
caused by improper supply voltage nor use of an
improperfuse.
NOTE
If you have both AC and DC power sources con-
nected at the same time, the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Fieldwill automatically select the external DC sup-
ply as its power source.
GENERAL SETUP
TRANSCEIVER LOCATION
To assure long life of the components, a primary
consideration in setting up the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field is providing for adequate ventilation around the
cabinet. The cooling system of the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field must be free to draw cool air in at the lower rear
of the transceiver, and to expel warm air out of the
upper rear panel. Do not place the transceiver on top
of another heat-generating device such as a linear
amplifier, and do not place equipment, books or pa-
pers on top of the transceiver. Also, provide a few cen-
timeters of space on either side of the transceiver, if
possible.Avoidheatingvents andwindowlocationsthat
could expose the transceiver to excessive direct sun-
light, especially in hot climates.
GROUNDING
For protection from electrical shock, and to ensure
proper performance, connect the GND terminal on the
rear panel to a good earth ground, using a heavy
braided cable of the shortest length possible. All other
station equipment should be connected to the same
grounding cable, as close together as practical. If you
use a computer with or near the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field, you may need to experiment with ground wiring
to suppress computer noise in the receiver, and ground
loops during transmission.

Page 10 OPERATING MANUAL
ANTENNA CONSIDERATIONS
Loss figures are approximate; consult cable manufac-
turers’ catalogs for complete specifications.
Loss figures can increase significantly if high SWR is
present on the transmission line.
ADJUSTING THE FRONT FEET
The two front feet of theMARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field
can be set in either of two positions. By turning the
knurled ring around a (retracted) foot clockwise, the
middle of the foot will extend about one centimeter.
Turn the ring as far as it will go (about ¼-turn) to lock
the extended foot in place. To retract an extended foot,
turn the knurled ring counterclockwise ¼-turn while
pressing on the center of the foot.
GENERAL SETUP
MEMORYBACKUP
The memory BACKUP switch on the rear panel is
turned on at the factory, allowing VFO and memory
data to be retained while power is off. Backup current
is miniscule, so it is not necessary to turn the BACKUP
switch off unless the transceiver is to be stored for an
extended period.
Afterfive ormore years ofoperation thetransceiver
may fail to retain memories, at which time the lithium
battery should be replaced. Contact your dealer for
replacement of the battery; for instructions on how to
do so yourself, see page 114.
Loss in dB per 30m (100 feet)
for Selected 50 WCoaxial Cables
(Assumes 50 WInput/Output Terminations)
(To Retract)(To Extend)
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field is designed for use
with any antenna system providing a 50 Wresistive
impedance at the desired operating frequency. While
minor excursions from the 50Wspecification are of no
consequence, the transceiver’s Automatic Antenna
Tuner may not be able to reduce the impedance mis-
match to an acceptable value if the Standing Wave
Ratio (SWR) present at the Antenna jack is greater
than 3:1. Among the undesirable consequences that
high SWR may produce are:
rThetransceiver’spoweramplifierprotectioncircuitry
will reduce power if the Automatic Antenna Tuner is
unsuccessful in reducing the SWR.
rEven if the Automatic Antenna Tuner successfully
normalizes the impedance presented to the radio,
feedline losses will escalate rapidly with increasing
SWR atthehigheroperatingfrequencies,especially
28 MHz.
rAlthough high SWR itself does not cause feedline
radiation, the sudden onset of high SWR may well
indicate a mechanical failure in a matching device,
leading to an electrical condition which may cause
excessive feedline radiation, which can cause in-
terference to nearby home-entertainment devices.
Every effort should, therefore, be made to ensure
that the impedance of the antenna system utilized with
the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field be as close as possible
to the specified 50 Wvalue.
Any antenna to be used with the MARK-V
FT-
1000MP
Field must, ultimately, be fed with 50 Wco-
axial cable. Therefore, when using a “balanced” an-
tenna such as a dipole, remember that a balun or other
matching/balancing device must be used so as to en-
sure proper antenna performance.
The same precautions apply to any additional (re-
ceive-only) antennas connected to theRXANT jack; if
your receive-only antennas do not have an impedance
near 50 Wat the operating frequency, you may need to
install an external antenna tuner to obtain optimum
performance.
Use high-quality 50 Wcoaxial cable for the lead-in
to your MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field transceiver. All ef-
forts at providing an efficient antenna system will be
wasted if poor quality, lossy coaxial cable is used.
Losses in coaxial lines increase as the frequency in-
creases, so a coaxial line with only 0.5 dB of loss at 7
MHz may have 2 dB of loss at 28 MHz. For reference,
the chart in the next column shows approximate loss
figures for typically-available coaxial cables frequently
used in amateur radio installations.

LINEAR AMPLIFIER INTERFACING
ACCESSORYINSTALLATION
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field can be used with
the optional Yaesu FL-7000 or VL-1000 LinearAmpli-
fier,providing automatic band switching via digital band
data output from the BANDDATA jack on the rear panel
ofthe transceiver. Mostotheramplifiers can beadapted
to operate with the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field; how-
ever, the main points to be concerned with are the
switching requirements of the amplifier, and if QSK (full
break-in) operation is desired. The linear amplifier Tx/
Rx switching capability of the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field is described in the table below.
OPERATION WITH QSK AMPLIFIERS
Connect the RF output from the transceiver ANT
jack (Aor B) to the RF input jack of the linear. Connect
the ALC output from the linear to theEXT ALC jack on
the rear of the transceiver (see the “About ALC” dis-
cussion below).After makingthe RFand Tx/Rxswitch-
ing connections described below, you may need to
adjust the ALC output level of the linear so that it is not
overdriven by the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field. Your
linear’s manual should describe how to do this.
If using aVL-1000, connect the BAND DATA Cable
(supplied with the VL-1000)fromthetransceiverBAND
DATA jack to the amplifier BAND-DATA 1 jack;this will
provide automatic band selection for the linear, as well
as QSK Tx/Rx switching control. You may also con-
nect auser-constructed control cable (refer to VL-1000
manual for details) from the transceiverREMOTE jack
to the amplifier BAND-DATA 2 jack to provide auto-
matic amplifier tune-up for the linear using the MARK-
V
FT-1000MP
Field. Press the VL-1000’s front panel
ATT switch to disable the 3 dB input RF power attenu-
ator.

Page 12 OPERATING MANUAL
If using an FL-7000, connect optional cable E-767
(P/ND4000019) fromthe transceiverBANDDATA jack
to the amplifier ACC-2 jack. This provides automatic
band selection for the linear, as well as QSK Tx/Rx
switching control. Turn on theFL-7000 rear panel ATT
switch to disable the 3 dB input RF power attenuator.
If using another manufacturer’s QSK linear, and if
its switching circuitry consumes less than 150 mA of
DC voltage below 40 V, you can connect the Tx/Rx
switching line for the linear to pin 2 (“TX GND”) of the
BANDDATA jack (usepin3forground),and thelinear’s
exciter-enable output to pin 8 (“TX INHIBIT”) of the
BAND DATA jack. This line must be switchedto ground
to enable transmission once the linear is ready for ex-
citation from the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field. If your
QSK linear sinks more than 100 mA or uses more than
15 V for T/R relay switching, you will have to provide a
suitable external interface transistor, controlled by pin
2. Be certain to make provision for suitable reduction
of the drive power from theMARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field,
so as not to damage your amplifier.
LINEAR AMPLIFIER INTERFACING
OPERATION WITH NON-QSK AMPLIFIERS
(FL-2100 SERIES OR OTHERS)
The TX GND jack on the transceiver rear panel is
connected to an internal relay, for non-QSK T/R switch-
ing of linear amplifiers that use AC switching voltage,
orDC voltagegreater than +15 V, negative DC voltage
of any kind (such as the Heath®SB-220/SB-221 mod-
els), or if they are required to sink more than 100 mA
for T/R switching. A schematic diagram of the relay
circuit is provided below. If not using your linear ampli-
fier in a full break-in environment, the use of this relay
for amplifier switching is highly recommended.
This relay comes disabled (rear-panel LIN set to
“OFF”) to avoid the clicking sound when the transceiver
is used alone or with a QSK linear. To enable the relay
for non-QSK linears that exceed the above T/R switch-
ing requirements, you will need to move the LIN switch,
located in the hole near the center of the rear panel, to
its right position (see the drawing). Use a thin, insu-
lated, sharp object to move the switch. Then connect
the center contact of the TX GND jack to the positive
relay-control line to your linear, and the outer contact
to the “common” line or the linear’s chassis ground.
Refer to the diagram at the next page;in this example,
a older non-QSK amplifier (FL-2100B) is shown.
Withthe relaynowenabled, theMARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field can support non-QSK linear T/R switching volt-
ages up to 100 VAC @ 500 mA, or DC voltage up to 60
V @ 200 mA, or closed-circuit current up to 1 A with
DC voltage up to 30 V.

The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field is designed for use
with the FL-7000/VL-1000 when QSK operation
with a linear amplifier is desired. If you are using a
different amplifier,do not attempt QSK operation
with the linear if its switching circuitry requires that
the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field’s relay be enabled.
Using pins 2 and 8 of the BAND DATA jack for
other amplifiers will not work unless the control line
signals are carefully matched, and damage may
resultotherwise.
Your transceiver’s warranty does not cover dam-
age resulting from improper connections to this
jack, so if you are not sure of the linear amplifier’s
break-in capabilities or switching requirements, the
safest approach is to enable the relay, use theTX
GND jack (after setting the LIN switch to the “ON”
position) and resort to non-QSK operation. This will
help prevent possible damage to the amplifier or
transceiver.
LINEAR AMPLIFIER INTERFACING
ABOUT ALC
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field provides an exter-
nal ALC jack on the rear panel (RCA-type jack) for
input of Automatic Level Control voltage from a linear
amplifier.
ALC voltage is used to provide dynamic control of
the output of the transceiver, so as not to provide more
drive than is needed for full amplifier output. The ALC
control voltage range is 0 to –4 V DC, with the voltage
going more negative as the amplifier’s drive require-
ments are approaching fulfillment.
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field’s ALC system is
very typical of designs in the amateur radio industry,
and consequently is compatible with many manufac-
tured and home-built amplifiers. However, ALC volt-
age may be generated by an amplifier in a manner
incompatible with efficient ALC operation in the MARK-
V
FT-1000MP
Field, and it is important that you recog-
nizethedifferencesin amplifier ALCcircuitsbeforepro-
ceeding with ALC line connection.
rALC circuits which detect Power Output from the
amplifier, and generatenegative-going ALCcontrol
voltage when maximum output power has been re-
alized, will generally work properly with the MARK-
V
FT-1000MP
Field.
The exact amount of ALC voltage fed to theMARK-
V
FT-1000MP
Field can usually be adjusted via a
potentiometer on the rear panel of the amplifier.
rALCcircuitswhichdetectAmplifierTubeGridCur-
rent, and generate ALC voltage when excessive
grid current is present, may not work well with the
MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field and other similar trans-
ceivers, as the ALC voltage may be generated be-
cause of amplifier mis-tuning not related to an ex-
cessive-drive condition. With amplifiers deriving
their ALC voltage in this manner, we recommend
that you notconnect the ALC line, and ratherletthe
amplifier’s protection circuitry manage its ALC re-
quirements internally.

DIGITAL MODEM (TNC, WEATHERFAX, ETC.)INTERFACING
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field offers special fea-
tures for digital modes, such as a built-in digitally-syn-
thesized AFSK generator for RTTY and AMTOR ter-
minal units, IF bandwidth optimization and automatic
display offsets, and an 18-ms transmit-to-receive turn-
around time.
Low-level Main Receiver audio output is provided
from the rear-panel RTTY and PKT jacks, and is unaf-
fected by front panel volume control settings. If you
prefer to use Sub Receiver audio for TNC input, switch
S3001 (located on the AF UNIT circuit board, inside
the transceiver, between the DVS-2 and PKT connec-
tors) can be moved from the MAIN to the SUB posi-
tion.
Audio level is 100 mV from both jacks. The RTTY
levelis fixed;however,PKT audiolevelcan beadjusted
by potentiometer VR3010. In many cases, it is easier
to perform level adjustments at the TNC.
DIGITAL MODES WITH ATNC
OR COMPUTER SOUND CARD (PSK-31)
The explosion of new digital modes of amateur com-
munication means that you will want to make connec-
tions to your TNC and/or computer as “standardized”
as possible. Generally, this will mean that you will want
to connect your transceiver in an “AFSK” environment.
On the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field, the PACKET jack
is the “AFSK” connection port, while the RTTY jack is
an “FSK” connection port. In the AFSK mode, the TNC
or computer generates the data signal as a set of au-
diotones, while theFSKmode uses aclosuretoground
(in the TNC or terminal unit) to cause the transceiver
to generate the “mark” and “space” tones.

Page 16 OPERATING MANUAL
Construct a patch cable or cables to make the nec-
essary connections between your TNC and the appro-
priate rear panel jack(s) (RTTY for FSK, PACKET for
AFSK). Refer to the pin-out diagram below, and the
wiring instructions included with your TNC. A descrip-
tion of the PACKET jack’s individual pins follows:
Pin 1 (DATA IN)- Connect this pin to your TNC’s
“AFSK Out” or “Mic Audio” output line. The optimum
input level is 30 mV rms, and the input impedance is 3
kW. Your TNC’s audio output level potentiometer will
allow you to set the level to the optimum value. This
pin may be used either for 300 baud SSB-mode digital
operation or for 1200-baud FM packet. The bandwidth
and frequency response are not, however, suitable for
9600 baud operation.
Pin 2 (Ground)- Connect this to the shield(s) of
the cable(s) used for connections between the TNC
and the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field.
Pin 3 (PTT)- Connect this pin to the PTT line from
the TNC. This pin, when grounded by the TNC, places
the MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field into the Transmit con-
dition.
Pin 4 (DATA Out)- Connect this pin to your TNC’s
“RX Audio” input line. This is a constant-level (100 mV
rms @ 600 W) audio output line which is notaffected
by the position of the front-panel
AF GAIN control.
Pin 5 (BUSY)- This is a “Squelch Status” pin not
generally required for digital mode operation. This pin
is held at +5V when the squelch is open, and is
grounded when the receiver is muted by the squelch
(“no-signal” condition).
For FSK operation using the RTTY jack, the fol-
lowing are the pin connections required:
Pin 1 (SHIFT)- Connect this pin to your TNC or
terminal unit’s “FSK Key” port. Closing and opening of
this line to ground causes mark/space keying.
Pin 2 (RX AF OUT)- Same as “DATA OUT” on
PACKET jack.
Pin 3 (PTT)- Same as “PTT” on PACKET jack.
Pin 4 (GND)- Same as “GND” on PACKET jack.
For operation on PSK31,connect yourcomputer's
sound card to the PACKET jack (for “PKT” mode op-
eration) or the MIC and EXT SP jacks (for “SSB” mode
operation). Also, use menu selection 8-6 to configure
the “User” mode (see page 110) for PSK31 operation.
For most operation, you will want to use the PS31-
U (for PKT mode) or PS31-SU (for USB mode) op-
tions under “East Set;” while BPSK operation is not
sideband-sensitive, QPSK operation, by convention,
utilizes USB-side injection.
The “User” mode is accessed, during operation, by
pressing and holding in for ½ second the [PKT]mode
switch.

CAUTION!!
The MARK-V
FT-1000MP
Field cooling system is
designed to handle continuous duty transmission
at 100 watts output. However, for continuous-duty
digital modes like RTTY, we recommend limiting
your transmissions to 3 minutes or less, with at
least 3 minutes receive in between transmissions.
Place your hand on the transceiver occasionally to
ensure that it’s not getting too hot,and try to keep
power output at 50 watts or less.
You can limit the maximum RF power output to 25
watts via programming, by recalling menuselection
4-0 and choosing reduced power output.

NOTE: COMPUTER-GENERATED RFI
When using a TNC connected to your transceiver,
or even having a PC located in the shack, the possibil-
ity exists that you may experience computer-generated
RFI (Radio Frequency Interference).
The CPU in a personal computer operates with a
crystal-controlled oscillator (clock), which may gener-
ate harmonics or other spurious signals. In addition,
high-speed digital data switching uses square waves,
which produce odd-order harmonic frequencies.
Computer-generated RFI may appear at seemingly
random frequencies (usually right where a rare DX sta-
tion is calling CQ!) throughout the range of your trans-
ceiver, and may sound like constant ticking or buzzing
that may change as you type or work within a program.
Severe RFI may have S-meter indications as much
greater than S-9, making copy of voice signals difficult
and data signals virtually impossible.
Computer-generated RFI is usually a result of in-
adequate shielding of the PC’s cabinet or I/O and pe-
ripheral connections. While computer equipment may
complywith RFemissionapprovalstandards, thisdoes
not ensure that sensitive amateur radio receivers will
not experience RFI from the device.
There are a few steps you can take to reduce or
eliminate computer-generated RFI. The first step is to
ensure that only shielded cables are used for TNC-to-
transceiver connections, carefully check RF ground
connections and re-orient your station equipment in
relation to the computer. Try moving your PC and pe-
ripherals slightly and see if it has any affect on the RFI,
in some cases, this alone may be enough to correct
the problem.
If not, several additional steps to try include install-
ing AC line filters on the power cord(s) of the suspected
equipment and inserting decoupling ferrite toroidal
chokes on interconnecting patch/data cables and
smaller ferrite beads on single wires.
As a last resort, you can try installing additional
shielding within the PC case, using appropriate con-
ductive mesh/screening or conductive tape. Especially
checkRF “holes”where plasticis usedfor cabinet front
panels. For further information, consult amateur radio
reference guides and publications relating to RFI sup-
pressiontechniques.
