Installation of Accessories
Antenna Installation
The supplied antenna provides good results over the entire frequency range
of the transceiver. However, for enhanced reception on certain non-Amateur
frequencies, you may wish to connect an an-
tenna designed specically for that frequency
range, as the supplied antenna is necessarily
a compromise outside the Amateur bands,
and cannot be expected to provide high per-
formance at all frequencies.
To install the supplied antenna, hold the bot-
tom end of the antenna, then screw it onto the
mating connector on the transceiver until it is
snug. Do not over-tighten by using of extreme
force.
• Never transmit without having an antenna connected.
• When installing the supplied antenna, never hold the upper
part of the antenna while screwing it onto the mating con-
nector on the transceiver.
• If using an external antenna for transmission, ensure that the
SWR presented to the transceiver is 1.5:1 or lower, to avoid
excessive feedline loss.
Preparation of SBR-25LI Battery Pack
The SBR-25LI is a high-performance Li-Ion battery providing long operating
time in a compact package. Under normal use, the SBR-25LI may be used
for approximately 300 charge cycles, after which operating time may be ex-
pected to decrease. When an old battery pack exhibits diminished capacity,
replace the pack with a new one.
Installing the Battery Pack
1. Insert the battery pack into the bat-
tery compartment on the back of the
transceiver(
).
2. Push the battery in until the battery
latch on the lower back side of the
transceiver clicks securely().

Removing the Battery Pack
To remove the battery, turn the
transceiver OFF. While sliding the latch
in the direction of the arrow, as shown
in the illustration, slide the battery pack
downward and out of the transceiver.
Attaching the Belt Clip
Attach the belt clip on the back of
transceiver using the supplied screws
(two).

Charging the Battery Pack
If the battery has never been used, or its charge is depleted, it may be
charged by placing the FT-25R/E in the SBH-22 Rapid Charger desktop cra-
dle, connected with the SAD-20B/C/U/G AC adapter.
DC jack
AC line outlet
A fully-discharged SBR-25LI Battery Pack will be charged completely in
about 2.5 hours (depending on the battery being charged). Disconnect the
SAD-20B/C/U/G from the DC jack and the AC line outlet.
• The SAD-20B/C/U/G is not designed to power the trans-
ceiver for operation (reception or transmission).
• Please be advised that the SAD-20B/C/U/G may contribute
noise to TV and radio reception in the immediate vicinity, so
we do not recommend its use adjacent to such devices.

Low Battery Indication
• As the battery discharges during use, the
voltage will gradually become lower. When
the battery voltage is too low for reliable op-
eration, the “ ” icon will blink on the LCD
display, indicating that the battery pack must
be recharged before further use.
• Avoid recharging Li-Ion batteries before the “ ” indicator is observed, as
this can degrade the charge capacity of your Li-Ion battery pack.

Basic Operation
Turn the Power ON and OFF
• Be sure the Battery Pack is installed, and is fully
charged. Connect the antenna to the top panel
Antenna jack.
• Rotate the PWR/VOL knob out of the click-
stop to turn the transceiver ON. The current DC
supply voltage will be shown on the display for
two seconds. After the two second interval, the
display will commence the normal operating fre-
quency indication.
• To turn the transceiver OFF, turn the PWR/VOL knob fully counter-clock-
wise into the click-stop position.
Adjust the Audio Volume Level and Squelch Setting
Rotate the PWR/VOL knob to adjust the receiver
volume. Listen to the open squelch background
noise to adjust the audio to a comfortable level.
1. To set the squelch level, press the F key and
then press the MONI/T.CALL key, to open the
SQ LEVEL set mode.
2. Press the [] or [] key to adjust to a level at
which the background noise is muted.
3. Press the PTT switch to save the squelch setting and return to normal
operation.
Changing between VFO-A and VFO-B
• Press the [#VFO] key repeatedly to toggle the
frequency control between the VFO mode and
the Memory mode.
• Frequency ranges are shown in the table.

Frequency Navigation
The FT-25R/E will initially be operating in the “VFO” mode. The VFO permits
free tuning throughout the currently-selected operating band in designated
frequency steps (operating channels).
Three basic frequency navigation methods are provided on the FT-25R/E:
1) Tuning Frequency
Pressing the [] key tunes the FT-25R/E toward a higher frequency, while
pressing the [] key will lower the operating frequency, in steps prepro-
grammed for the current operating band.
2) Direct Keypad Frequency Entry
The operating frequency may be entered directly from the keypad by press-
ing the numbered digits on the keypad in the proper sequence.
Examples:
To enter 145.560 MHz, press [1] [4] [5] [5] [6] [0]
To enter 145.000 MHz*, press [1] [4] [5] [0] [0] [0]
*There is a short-cut to enter frequencies ending in zeros - after
the last non-zero digit, press and hold the [0/SET] key to enter the
remaining zeros.
3) Scanning
Manual VFO Scan:
To manually initiate VFO scanning, press and
hold either the [] or [] key to begin upward or
downward scanning, respectively.
Programmed Mode VFO Scan:
To begin scanning within a limited sub-band
range from the VFO mode, press and hold the
[#VFO] key to select the bandwidth for the Pro-
grammed Mode (VFO) scanner. Then press the F
key and the [#VFO] key to start scanning.
The scanner will stop when it receives a signal
strong enough to open the Squelch threshold.
(Manual VFO Scan)
(Programmed Mode
VFO Scan)
The FT-25R/E will then hold on that frequency in accordance with the “RE-
SUME” mode setting (Set Mode Item “25 RESUME”).
Press the PTT switch momentarily to cancel the scanning (this only stops the
scan; it does not cause a transmission to occur).

The direction of the scan may not reverse while FT-25R/E is
scanning.
For more details on the scanning, see page 35.
Transmission
• To transmit, press the PTT switch, and speak into the front panel micro-
phone (located in the lower left-hand corner of the speaker grille) in a nor-
mal voice level. The TX/BUSY indicator will glow red during transmission.
• To return to the receive mode, release the PTT switch.
• During transmit, the power level will be indicated relatively on the bar
graph at the bottom of the LCD. Full scale deection conrms “High Pow-
er” operation. Five bars indicate “Medium Power” operation, while one bar
indicates “Low Power” operation. Additionally, while operating on the “Low
Power” or “Medium Power” setting, the “ ” icon or “ ” icon will appear
at the bottom-left of the display.
Changing the Transmit Power Level
To change the power level:
1. Press the F key and then press the [P2] key.
• The present TX power output level will appear on the display.
• To adjust the TX power in the Set Mode, press and hold the F key.
Then repeatedly press the [▲] or [▼] key to select Set Mode item “32 TX
PWR” and then press the F key.
2. Press the [▲] or [▼] key to select the desired power output level.
Available selections are “HI ” (5 W), “MID” (2.5 W), and “LOW” (0.5 W).
3. Press the PTT switch to save the new setting and return to normal oper-
ation.

Repeater Operation
Repeater stations are often located on mountaintops or other high locations,
and provide a dramatic extension of the communication range for low-pow-
ered hand-held or mobile transceivers. The FT-25R/E includes a number of
features which make repeater operation simple and enjoyable.
Repeater Shifts
The transceiver has been congured at the factory for the repeater shifts
customary in the sales destination country. For the 144 MHz band the re-
peater shift will be 0.6 MHz.
Automatic Repeater Shift (ARS)
The FT-25R/E provides a convenient Automatic Repeater Shift feature, which
automatically applies the appropriate repeater frequency shift when tuning in
the repeater sub-bands of the designated country. The ARS setting options
are listed below:
Display Description
ARS : ON (default setting) Enable the Automatic Repeater Shift function.
ARS : OFF Disable the Automatic Repeater Shift function.
