※Precautions

Please register HOME frequency by yourself after the first activation. (HOME frequency can be registered in all bands)

Please note that this application does not synchronize with the FT main unit, so there may be differences in the settings of the FT-X and the application depending on how it is used.

Since this application includes elements such as conversion cables other than the application, we cannot support it if it does not work well. We apologize for the inconvenience, but use it at your own discretion and responsibility.
