This frequency is only to be used when the immediate safety of human life and/or property are threatened, and

tions.

tween channels “MEM-P2U” and “US5-001.”
If you partitioned your memory channels into
Memory Groups via Menu Item “MEM GRP”, then
select the memory channel group “M-12-EM”
which is the emergency channel.
3. To exit from emergency channel and return to the
VFO mode, just press the [MW/V/M] button.
Note:
❒ The receive-mode CLARIFIER functions normally while using this frequency, but variation of the transmit
frequency is not possible. Activation of “MEM-EMG” or “M-12-EM” does not enable any other out-of-amateur-
band capability on the transceiver. The full specifications of the FT-450 are not necessarily guaranteed on
this frequency, but power output and receiver sensitivity should be fully satisfactory for the purpose of emer-
gency communication.
❒ In an emergency, note that a half-wave dipole cut for this frequency should be approximately 45’3” on each
leg (90’6” total length). Emergency operation on 5167.5 kHz is shared with the Alaska-Fixed Service. This
transceiver is not authorized for operation, under the FCC’s Part 87, for aeronautical communications.
