Yaesu - FTM-3165E ASP

The Yaesu FT-3165E ASP is a high-performance 2-meter mobile transceiver that combines rugged durability with advanced features, making it a top choice for ham radio enthusiasts who demand reliable communication in any environment. With a power output of 65W and options to adjust to 30W or 5W, this transceiver offers flexibility and adaptability to various operating conditions, whether for local contacts or extended-range communication. The FT-3165EASP is built with Yaesu’s FACC (Funnel Air-Convection Conductor) cooling system, providing an effective heat dissipation design that ensures stable performance even during prolonged use. This "wind tunnel" system helps to regulate the internal temperature, reducing thermal stress on components and enhancing the transceiver's longevity.

Equipped with a front-facing 5W speaker, the FT-3165E ASP delivers powerful and clear audio for enhanced communication clarity, even in challenging environments. For those who require even louder audio output, the unit is compatible with the optional MLS-100 external speaker, providing uninterrupted communication in high-noise areas. The Super-DX function is another standout feature, designed to significantly increase receiver sensitivity for weak signal areas. This mode is supported by an Audio Digital Signal Processing (ASP) unit, which filters and processes incoming audio to optimise clarity and reduce background noise, ensuring high-quality audio even from distant or weak sources.

In terms of functionality, the FT-3165E ASP offers extensive memory capabilities with 220 memory channels that include 8-character alphanumeric labels, making it easy to organise and access frequently used channels. The DTMF microphone allows for quick keypad frequency input, enabling swift tuning and adjustments. A range of versatile scanning features such as Preferential Memory Scan, VFO Scan, and Priority Channel Scan (Dual Watch) provide users with flexible scanning options suited to different operational needs. Additionally, CTCSS/DCS encode/decode functionality enables secure, interference-free communication, while extra features like Automatic Power Off (APO), Time-Out Timer (TOT), and Busy Channel Lock-out (BCLO) add convenience and operational safety. The FT-3165EASP also includes NOAA Weather Broadcast Channels with Weather Alert, ensuring users stay informed of critical weather updates.

This transceiver is ideal for ham radio users who need a reliable, feature-rich device capable of handling both daily communication needs and more demanding field operations. With its rugged build, extensive feature set, and high-quality audio output, the FT-3165EASP stands out as a dependable companion for any ham radio operator.
