My good friend Joel, KC4WZB, loaned me his brand new Yaesu FTdx10. When I say loaned, I mean he picked it up at Ham Radio Outlet and brought it straight to me, so I could unbox it and shoot a series of videos, exploring the capabilities of this latest offering from Yaesu.
Note: I realized after I shot the video that I had left my laptop computer power supply plugged in upstairs. So, some of the noise floor you see in this video is from the computer. It’s good to know that this radio can mitigate the noise so well.

Hi Doug,

Hi Doug, you probably know but its worth saying that your great FTdx10 series of video's (and the others) are not just for the new operators. As a licence holder for over 40 years I have never been taught how to get the best from any HF set until now.

I recently got my General and first HF radio, this FTdx10. I can't thank you enough for this video series, I'm sure they are great for old hams to learn the new bells and whistles their new radio has. But to someone new to Ham like myself they have been invaluable. Thanks again for all your work.

Doug, thank you for explaining and showing us the step by step effects of on the received signal using the Attenuation + IPO + RoofingFilter + RFGain reduction and then dipping your toe into the Digital Noise Reduction. Looking forward to viewing the next in this series! Kudos.

Just bought one of theses, and watching some of your videos helped swing it for me. Now going to plough through the series whilst I wait to set my shack up.

Thanks so much for covering all this information! It's wonderful that you're willing to teach those of us who need it (like myself) what some of these features mean and how they work. Too often, presenters will assume their audience is up to speed on everything. In short, you're an excellent Elmer, and I appreciate it. Cheers and 73!

Thanks for the great video. I have had my eye on the FTDX10 for a few months now and it will be my next HF radio. I learned a lot in this video, not just about the FTDX10, but about the setting on HF radios in general.

Thanks Doug. I snagged the last FTDX10 from my local HRO and was in business an hour later with this amazing radio. I had been watching this playlist for the last week. This was a Gold mine of information.

I've been a general class operator without an HF rig for three years. (I have been very active with my Yeasu FTM-400XDR and, more recently, an FT5DR.) I have spent many months watching various videos, intending to make the best purchase possible for an HF radio that I'd be happy with for a long time. Tonight, I bought the FTdx10 while it was on sale. Your videos were completely influential and I appreciate them greatly. Thanks so much for what you (and Joel) have done to guide my purchase and further my interest and enjoyment. Between your wonderful ability to impart complex information, the features and capabilities of this model, and the price-point obtained, I am one hundred percent confident in my decision to buy this radio and I haven't even unboxed it yet.

@lapinebob

I just bought this radio after using an Icom 718 for a couple years after getting my license. Thank you so much for this video.

Thank you Doug for this fantastic video. It helped me to understand the Radio a lot better. I got a FTDX10 from my passed away friend. Never had a Yeasu before, but now I am a big fan of this Transciever.
