FT2000 Internal Menus Settings
This section is an excerpt from the main "settings" table for the FT2000 internal menu. These are special settings that
are tailored for the FT2000 based on the particular mic and the user's voice. These are shared so that others can
see what settings bring the radio to generate ESSB Tx audio. NO external audio processing equipment is required.
Recommended Menu Settings
To access the internal FT2000 menus, press the "MENU" button. Then rotate the main VFO - "A" knob until the desired number is shown.
To change the value, rotate the VFO - "B" knob until your choice is shown. Then press "MENU" for 2 - 3 seconds until a 'beep' is heard.
The new parameter is now stored.
