Page 104 FT -2000 O PERA TING M ANUAL Packet operation is easily accomplished on the FT -2000 by connecting your TNC (T erminal Node Controller) to the transceiver , per the illustration. “Packet” operation also applies to SSB-based AFSK data modes, such as PSK31, etc.
Page 105 FT -2000 O PERA TING M ANUAL Most R TTY operation today is accomplished using a TNC or other computer-based system that utilizes AFSK tones. As such, the previous discussion on LSB-mode “Packet” operation will apply for Baudot operation, as well.
