2.1 Nsopọ Gbohungbohun
Connect the supplied microphone cable from the M-100 base unit to the microphone input jack on your compatible Yaesu HF transceiver. Ensure the connection is secure.
2.2 Powering the M-100
The M-100 microphone receives power directly from compatible Yaesu HF transceivers via the supplied microphone cable. No separate power adapter is typically required for most compatible models.
Akiyesi: Certain transceivers, including the FT-747, FT-840, FT-850, FT-990, and FT-1000, may require an optional "Power Supply Kit" for proper operation. Refer to your transceiver's manual for specific power requirements.

3.1 Dual-Element Selection
The M-100 features both a condenser and a dynamic microphone element. Use the one-touch buttons on the microphone base to select between these elements:
- Ohun elo Condenser: Provides a wider overall frequency response with clear and crisp audio.
- Apo Yiyipo: Delivers enhanced low and mid-range frequency response.
- Ipo Apapo: Both elements can be used simultaneously to achieve a balanced sound quality tailored to individual voice characteristics.
3.2 Audio Frequency Response Controls
The microphone base includes controls to shape the transmitted audio frequency response:
- Low-Cut Control: Cuts off frequencies below 340Hz at -6dB/octave. This helps reduce unwanted low-frequency noise.
- High-Cut Control: Cuts off frequencies above 2kHz at -6dB/octave. This can be used to reduce high-frequency hiss or tailor the audio for specific operating conditions.
3.3 Treble Boost Cowling (TBC)
The supplied TBC (Treble Boost Cowling) can be attached to the microphone to enhance voice response attributes in the 1,000 – 1,500 Hz range. This feature helps create a more penetrating signal with a distinct texture, useful for cutting through crowded bands.
3.4 PTT Key and ON AIR Indicator
The Push-To-Talk (PTT) key is designed for smooth and comfortable operation, utilizing three Air-Cylinder Tubes to prevent a harsh "click." A magnetic switch ensures long-term reliability. The highly visible ON AIR LED indicator illuminates when the PTT circuit is active, clearly showing when you are transmitting.
4. Itọju
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Yaesu M-100 microphone, follow these general maintenance guidelines:
- Ninu: Gently wipe the microphone body and base with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or excessive moisture, which can damage the finish or internal components.
- Ibi ipamọ: When not in use, store the microphone in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity.
- Itọju USB: Avoid sharply bending or twisting the microphone cable. Always grasp the connector, not the cable, when plugging or unplugging it from your transceiver.
- Mimu: Handle the microphone with care to prevent drops or impacts, which could affect its delicate internal elements.

- Ensure the microphone cable is securely connected to both the M-100 and the transceiver.
- Verify that the transceiver's microphone input is enabled and properly configured.
- Check if the M-100 requires an optional power supply kit for your specific transceiver model (refer to Section 2.2).
- Test with a different microphone or cable if available to isolate the issue.
- Didara Olohun ko dara:
- Adjust the Low-Cut and High-Cut controls on the microphone base.
- Experiment with the Condenser, Dynamic, and Combined element selections to find the optimal setting for your voice and operating conditions.
- Ensure the TBC is correctly attached if you intend to use it.
- Check the microphone gain settings on your transceiver.
- PTT Not Activating:
- Ensure the microphone cable is fully inserted and locked into place.
- Check the ON AIR LED indicator. If it does not illuminate, there might be a connection or power issue.
- Consult your transceiver's manual for PTT input settings.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact Yaesu customer support or your authorized dealer for further assistance.
