received signal.
Always switches to FM mode for transmission.
DN FIX
Automatically selects one of the 4 communication modes according to the
received signal.
Always switches to DN mode for transmission.
VW FIX
Automatically selects one of the 4 communication modes according to the
received signal.
Always switches to VW mode for transmission.
AUTO Automatically selects one of the 4 communication modes according to the
received signal.
4. Press [PTT] switch to save the setting and return to normal operation.
Changing the communication mode manually
1. Press the [AMS] key to deactivate the AMS function.
2. Pressing repeatedly switches the communication mode as follows. Pressing [mode]
key repeatedly switches the communication mode as follows.

Communication Mode Icon Explanation of modes
V/D Mode
(Voice/Data simultaneous
transmission mode) DN Calls are less prone to interruptions due to detection
and correction of voice signals during digital voice signal
transmission. This is the standard mode for C4FM Digital.
Voice FR Mode
(Voice Full Rate Mode) VW High speed data communication using entire 12.5 kHz
band. Enables high-quality voice communication.
Analog FM Mode FM Analog communication using FM mode.
Effective when the signal is weak and audio is susceptible
tointerruption in digital mode.
AM Mode (receive only) AM The FT-70DR/DE is mainly provides the AM mode for
reception of air band.
In V/D mode (“DN” on the LCD), position information is included in the radio wave during voice
communication, however, position information is not included in the Voice FR mode (“VW” on the
LCD).

zUse the transceiver at the minimum required transmit power level. Doing so prevents the
transceiver from overheating and saves battery power, increasing the operating time.
zDo not continue transmitting for a prolonged period. The transceiver can overheat, resulting
in malfunction or a burn injury.
zIf transmission is continued for a long period, the transceiver overheats and the high
temperature protection function is activated. As a result, the transmitting power level is
automatically set to Low Power. If you continue transmitting while the high temperature
protection function is active, the transceiver will be forcibly returned to the receive mode.
zIf you touch the transceiver immediately after the high temperature protection function has
become active, you may be burned. Wait for the temperature inside the transceiver to cool
sufficiently before resuming transmission.
zDo not start transmitting without attaching the antenna. The transmitter circuit can be
damaged.
zYou can transmit on the 144 MHz and 430 MHz ham radio bands.
zEven while receiving in AM mode, transmit will continue to be in NFM mode when pressing .
zIf is pressed when a frequency other than the amateur ham radio band is selected, an alarm
tone (beep) will be emitted and “ERROR” appears on the LCD, disabling transmission.
zThe transceiver may be set to inhibit transmit while receiving a signal. Press and hold [F]
key to enter the Set mode, then select [4 BCLO], and then select [ON].

Changing the Transmission Power Level
The maximum transmit power level of this transceiver is 5 W. When communicating with
another station in the immediate area, or to reduce the battery power consumption, the
transmit power level may be lowered.
1. Press [F] key, then press the [1](TX PO) key.
2. Rotate the [DIAL] knob to select one of the
following transmission power levels.
TX PO Level Icon PO meter
HIGH (5 W) disappear
MID (2 W)
LOW (0.5 W)
3. Press [PTT] switch to save the setting and
return to normal operation.
zThe transmitter power level may be set separately for the 144 MHz and 430 MHz band.
zUse the transceiver at the minimum required transmit power level to reduce battery power
consumption.
zBy default, “HIGH (High power)” is selected.
Locking Keys and Dial
To prevent accidental frequency change during operation, the keys, switches and DIAL
(except [MONI] key and [VOL] key) can be locked.
1. Press and hold [LOCK](POWER) key.
“LOCK” is displayed for 1 second on the LCD.
When the lock function is activated,
always appears on the LCD.
To lock/unlock the operations of the DIAL konob
and [PTT] switch, press and hold the [F] key to
enter Set mode, then select [38 LOCK].
2. To unlock a key or dial, press and hold [LOCK]
(POWER) key again.
“UNLOCK” is displayed on the LCD for 1
second.

FT-70DR/FT-70DE Operating Manual
Communicating Via the Repeater
The FT-70DR/DE includes an ARS (Automatic Repeater Shift) function which enables
repeater operation automatically when setting the receiver to the repeater frequency.
1. Set the receiver frequency to the repeater frequency.
” or “ ” appears in the above of the frequency.
2. Begin transmitting by pressing and holding [PTT] switch. The transmitter will
automatically be set to the programmed offset frequency.
zPressing [F] key and then pressing [HM/RV] key enters the “reverse” state where the
transmission frequency and the receive frequency are temporarily reversed. This allows
checking to find if direct communication with the remote station is possible.
zIn the “reverse” state, or blinks on the LCD.
zPressing [F] key again and then [HM/RV] exits from the “reverse” state.
zPress and hold [F] key to enter Set mode, then configure the following repeater settings for
more convenient use.
[54 RPT.ARS]: Deactivates the ARS function
[55 RPT.FRQ]: Allows changing the repeater shift offset
[56 RPT.SFT]: Allows setting the repeater shift direction
Tone Calling (1750 Hz burst tone)
If your transceiver is FT-70DE (European version), press and hold in the [MONI/
T-CALL] key to generates a 1750 Hz burst tone to access the European repeater.
The transmitter will automatically be activated, and a 1750 Hz audio tone will be
superimposed on the carrier. Once access to the repeater has been gained, you may
release the [MONI/T-CALL] key, and use the [PTT] switch for activating the transmitter
thereafter. If you need to access the repeaters which requires a 1750 Hz burst tone
for access by the FT-70DR (USA/EXP versions), you can set the [MONI/T-CALL] key
switch to serve as a “Tone Call” switch instead. To change the configuration of this
switch, use Set Mode [40 M/T-CL].

When the All Reset function is performed, all data registered in the memory will be deleted. Be
sure to note the settings on paper.
1. Turn the radio OFF.
2. Press and hold [MODE] key, [HM/RV] key
and [GM] key and turn on the transceiver
simultaneously.
3. When the beep sounds, release the key.
“ALL RESET? PUSH F KEY” appears on the
LCD.
4. Touch [F] key.
A beep sounds and the call sign input
message appears on the LCD.
z To cancel Reset function, press a key or switch other than [F] key.
zTo return only the Set Mode option settings to default, Press and hold [MODE] key and [V/M]
key and turn on the transceiver simultaneously.
