bh | Yaesu FTDX-100 Amateur Band SSB Transceiver |
The Yaesu FTDX-100 is a 1960s-era amateur-band transceiver, of hybrid design - primarily solid-state, but 3 tubes for the transmitter driver and output.
It's compact, solidly built, and well-featured:
The downside to the compactness is difficulty of serviceability. Typical of Japanese construction of the era, the compactness was achieved by a layered construction that makes access to many components difficult.
The schematic linked below is a redrawing of the manufacturer schematic to make some sense out of it.
