Yaesu FT-891 | Switching between USB & LSB | Easy

In this quick video I show you how to switch between USB and LSB on the Yaesu FT-891 transceiver. You will have probably noticed the details given in the manual are somewhat false, but it really is easy to switch between the two via the function menu.

Great stuff. As a new FT-891 user, that's exactly what I needed. Thanks!

[chriscorbett]

Thank you! I seen why users complain about Yeasu's menu design now!

Very good the manual doesn't tell
How to switch side bands. This answered my question about it. I just got this new Yaesu FT-891. It's a very nice rig for portable and mobile use.

Great! Had my 11-03 set for USB as I generally run FT8/FT4. This really helped. 73 W1WAB

thanks your videos are an amazing help to this old timer learning new radio tricks

I work FT8 a lot and this is great. Saved for future reference as I'm bound to forget the menu number. FT8 uses USB on 40m. Thanks.

Thanks for the tip! The FT-891 is a fun little radio. A lot of radio to be so small and affordable!

Just had this problem yesterday. Haven’t even done a search yet to get the answer and YouTube happened to recommend it to me today. Things that make you go hmmm. Nevertheless just what I needed so thanks for the video.

Mike, thanks for the video. Is a great help. I have the 857. I've had it for years, love it. My goto radio. Came across the 891 and fell in love all over again. So, my winded point is that your video has been a great help. Thank you. Keep up the great work. Have fun. Be safe. '73.

Thank you so Much. Just got a FT-891 and still trying to learn how to use it

[tvtittel]

Finally I know how to switch from lab to usb !!!

[ivandubinsky]

I already knew that. I thought you might have had an easier and quicker way to do it. Yaesu sure dropped the ball on that particular function. Hopefully, it will be corrected in a firmware update.

Just bought a 891. Tuned into the Friday night top band net on 1.903 USB (USB is used as the majority are using Clansman gear, Couldn't change the mode. Thank you for posting this. Ian. G0YAP
