FT-710 AESS 100W HF/6M SDR Transceiver

The FT-710 is a 100W HF and 6M multimode (AM, SSB,CW, DATA. FM) SDR transceiver designed for the 21st century.
It is equipped with the same high resolution A/D converter and FPGA used in Yaesu’s other high-end SDR transceivers and provides superb performance across all bands. Its front panel design emphasis operating efficiency and comfort. Various functions like ‘PRESET’ mode for FT8 operation, built in tuner, SD Card slot for saving and restoring transceiver settings, memory contents, screen capture images and firmware updates. 2 USB ports for operating the transceiver remotely ( SCU-LAN10 required) or inputting text with a USB keyboard. A USB type B supports CAT operaion, Audio input.output and TX control.
