We are pleased to introduce the FTDX10, YAESU's new compact HF/50MHz 100W SDR transceiver.
- Hybrid SDR Configuration
Like the FTDX101 series, the new FTDX10 uses the YAESU Hybrid SDR configuration - narrow-band SDR and direct sampling SDR. The narrow-band SDR receiver emphasizes excellent receiver performance, while the Direct Sampling SDR provides real-time digital processing of the spectrum.
- Narrow-band SDR with 3 types of roofing filters and phenomenal multi-signal reception characteristics
Like the FTDX101 series, the Down Conversion type receiver configuration with the first IF at 9MHz has been adopted. This makes it possible to incorporate excellent narrow-band crystal roofing filters that have the desired "cliff edge" form factor. Thanks to the narrow-band SDR with the latest circuit configuration including 500Hz, 3kHz, and 12kHz roofing filters and a low-noise oscillator, the RMDR (Reciprocal Mixing Dynamic Range) achieves 116dB or more, the close-in BDR (Blocking Dynamic Range) achieves 141dB or more, and the 3rd IMDR (Third-order Intermodulation Dynamic Range) achieves 109dB or more, in the 14MHz band at 2kHz separation.
- 250MHz HRDDS (High Resolution Direct Digital Synthesizer) offers quiet and clear reception
The local circuit of the new FTDX10 uses the 250MHz HRDDS method, like the FTDX101 series. Thanks to its characteristics that improve the C/N (carrier/noise) ratio and the careful selection of components in the design, the phase noise characteristic of the local signal reaches an excellent value of -145dB or less at 14MHz at 2kHz separation.
- 3DSS (3-Dimensional Spectrum Stream) on the 5-inch full-color TFT display with Touch-Panel functionality
The 5-inch Full-Color panel shows the 3DSS display. By touching the frequency display, the numeric keypad appears, and the active band and frequency adjustment can be set via direct input. Frequency setting and adjustment can also be done by rotating the MAIN dial or by touching the scope display. Similar to the FTDX101 series, MULTI display, RX operating status display, Center, FIX, and Cursor modes are available.
- Front panel designed for extraordinary operational efficiency
MPVD (Multi-Purpose VFO Outer Dial), is a multi-purpose knob located on the outside of the VFO that allows control of the Clarifier, C/S (custom selection function), and memory channel recall.
- Remote operation with optional LAN unit (SCU-LAN10)
Remote operation of the transceiver is possible with the optional SCU-LAN10 network remote control software. In addition to controlling the basic operations of the transceiver, the various display variants of the oscilloscope allow sophisticated operations such as monitoring band conditions on a large display even remotely via connection to a home LAN network.

- 15 separate bandpass filters - Effective QRM reduction through IF DSP functionalities (IF SHIFT/WIDTH, IF NOTCH DNF, DNR, COUNTOUR) - Very high quality and stable final stage employing the new RD70HUP2 push-pull MOSFET transistors - 80mm aluminum heatsink with very low noise axial fan - High-speed automatic antenna tuner with 100 memory channels - RF & AF Transmit Monitor - Microphone amplifier with three-stage parametric equalizer (SSB/AM modes) - QMB (Quick Memory Bank) - Band Stack Function - Optional external speaker – SP-30 specifically designed for the new FTDX10 - Optional roofing filter (300Hz) – XF-130CN available
