The Yaesu FTA-550L airband transceiver is packed with innovative and useful features and is also very affordable. The Yaesu FTA-550L Airband transceiver has an extra large full dot matrix LCD screen of 4.32 x 4.32 cm for full monitoring of communications on the airband. The Yaesu FTA-550L also offers VOR and ILS navigation functions on the "NAV" band and has NOAA weather band monitoring and a 200-channel memory bank. The menu system of the Yaesu FTA series is easy to operate using icons. Additionally, the Yaesu FTA-550L can be reprogrammed in minutes using the included USB programming cable and optional PC programming software.
MIL-STD-810F standard
The Yaesu FTA-550L has been tested and meets the Military Standard MIL-STD-810F standard. As with commercial land mobile radios, all current Yaesu Airband Transceivers are tested for durability against low temperatures, high temperatures, shock, vibration, dust and rain, ensuring years of rugged use.
ILS navigation (localization)
Course deviation based on the received localizer signal can be clearly viewed on the CDI display. The superior visibility aids landing during poor weather conditions.
VOR navigation
When the FTA-550L receives a VOR signal, the display automatically switches to the NAV band screen and shows the CDI based on the received signal.
Menu system
The FTA-550L comes with an easy-to-use icon-driven menu system. The displays and menu settings are logically configured for a more intuitive user interface.
Large Dot Matrix LCD screen
The FTA-550L has a huge 1.7" x 1.7" (4.32 x 4.32cm) high-resolution Full Dot Matrix LCD screen with bright backlight and dimmer.
Memory tape for 200 channels
The Yaesu FTA-550L can store up to 200 memory channels with the ability to use up to 15 alphanumeric characters per name, giving you a better and clear channel description.
PC programmable
The Yaesu FTA-550L's channel configurations can be easily reprogrammed using the included USB programming cable and optional YCE01 programming software.

What are ferrites?
Ferrites are ceramic compounds of the transition metals with oxygen, which are ferrimagnetic but non-conductive. Ferrites used in transformer or electromagnetic cores contain iron oxides combined with nickel, zinc and/or manganese compounds. They have a low coercivity and are called "soft ferrites" to distinguish them from "hard ferrites", which have a high coercivity and are used to make ferrite magnets. The low coercivity means that the magnetization of the material can easily change direction while dissipating very little energy (hysteresis losses). At the same time, the high resistivity of the material prevents eddy currents in the core, another source of energy loss.
