Yaesu FTM-510DE
55W/50W C4FM Digital/FM Dual-Band Mobile Transceiver
Outstanding mobile communication with Super-DX weak-signal reception, true dual-band C4FM capability, advanced memory monitoring and a large colour touchscreen. The standard FTM-510DE delivers flagship features with the flexibility to add optional ASP audio processing later.
Super-DX Included. ASP Upgrade Optional.
This version does not have the SPU-1 Audio Signal Processor installed. Super-DX reception works as standard, but ASP noise reduction and ASP AUTO require the optional SPU-1 module.

Explore the advanced operating features and dual-band capabilities of Yaesu's FTM-510 series.
Flagship features with room to grow
The Yaesu FTM-510DE builds on the popular FTM-500DE platform, offering advanced dual-band communication, enhanced memory functions and Yaesu's Super-DX weak-signal reception. It delivers up to 55W on 144MHz and 50W on 430MHz, supporting both traditional FM analogue and C4FM digital voice operation.
With a large detachable touchscreen controller, independent dual receivers, integrated GPS, APRS communication and extensive memory functions, the FTM-510DE is a versatile choice for vehicle installations and home stations alike.
The standard version retains the same core features as the FTM-510DE ASP. The difference is the additional SPU-1 processor, which is not factory-installed on this model.
Powerful mobile performance
144MHz Output
High-power VHF operation with selectable lower output levels for repeaters, local contacts and mobile use.
430MHz Output
Substantial UHF output for analogue and digital communication across the 70cm amateur band.
Super-DX Reception
Enhances receiver sensitivity when working weak signals on supported analogue FM and C4FM digital modes.
Simultaneous Reception
Independent receiving paths allow monitoring of two frequencies, including supported C4FM/C4FM combinations.
Super-DX. Hear signals that are harder to reach.
Super-DX increases the sensitivity of the radio's RF amplifier when incoming signals are weak. It is available for supported C4FM digital and analogue FM operation, helping improve reception where a distant or obstructed signal is difficult to hear.
Super-DX is included on the standard FTM-510DE and does not require any additional hardware. Simply use the S-DX control to activate or deactivate the function.
Super-DX improves receiver sensitivity. ASP is a separate digital audio-processing function that reduces noise from weak analogue FM signals. The standard FTM-510DE supports Super-DX, but ASP requires installation of the optional SPU-1 module.
Reception improvements depend on signal strength, local interference, antenna installation and propagation conditions.
Upgrade to ASP whenever you're ready
Installing the optional Yaesu SPU-1 Audio Signal Processor enables advanced noise reduction for weak analogue FM reception. Rather than simply increasing sensitivity, ASP processes the received audio to reduce background noise and improve speech clarity under suitable conditions.
The upgrade also enables ASP AUTO mode, which activates processing automatically when weak FM signals are received. The module can be installed later, allowing you to choose when to add this functionality.
Listen to two channels at once
The FTM-510DE provides independent A and B receiving paths. Operators can monitor VHF and UHF simultaneously, two VHF frequencies, or two UHF frequencies, including compatible C4FM digital signals on both receiving channels.
Whether following a club net while monitoring a repeater, listening to local simplex activity or tracking two digital talk paths, dual reception avoids the need to continuously switch frequencies.
Smarter monitoring with PMG and MAG
Enhanced PMG
Register up to five priority frequencies for quick monitoring. AUTO and MANUAL monitoring modes provide convenient ways to follow activity and select the channel used for transmitting.
MAG and My Group
Memory Auto Grouping organises stored channels by band. My Group provides a separate collection for favourite frequencies regardless of band.
Activity Bar Graphs
Visual monitoring displays show activity on priority channels, with previous activity fading from the screen when signals disappear.
Touchscreen Selection
Select active channels with the touchscreen or front-panel dial, reducing the number of steps required during busy operating periods.
C4FM digital and analogue FM in one radio
The FTM-510DE supports both FM analogue and Yaesu C4FM digital voice. Automatic Mode Select (AMS) recognises compatible digital or analogue incoming transmissions and selects the appropriate reception mode.
Yaesu DG-ID and Group Monitor functions help organise digital operating groups, while WIRES-X compatibility supports suitable network-linked digital communication arrangements.
The radio is suitable for conventional repeaters, simplex communication, club activity and digital voice networks, with Super-DX offering additional support for weak-signal reception.
A large, adjustable touchscreen controller
The high-resolution colour touchscreen provides access to frequencies, memories, digital operating functions and signal monitoring. Its detachable, angle-adjustable control head is designed to remain practical whether the radio is installed in a vehicle or on a desktop.
Adjustable Control Head
Position the display for a comfortable viewing angle in different installations.
Search & Go
Convenient selection of compatible channels and operating information.
Touch & Go
Intuitive touchscreen navigation for frequently used operating functions.
Band Scope
Graphical indication of nearby frequency activity and received signals.
Built-in GPS, Smart Navigation and APRS
The internal GPS receiver supports position-based functions, including Smart Navigation with a graphical compass display. This can help operators maintain awareness of positions and directions when working with supported position data.
APRS functionality supports 1200/9600bps packet communication for position reporting, messages and other compatible data features. A microSD card slot provides additional storage and data-management options.
Add Bluetooth with the optional BU-5
Bluetooth is not fitted as standard. Installing the optional Yaesu BU-5 Bluetooth unit enables wireless audio and hands-free operation with compatible headsets, including the Yaesu SSM-BT20.
The BU-5 module adds Bluetooth capability to the transceiver. The SSM-BT20 is a compatible wireless headset. Both accessories are sold separately and neither requires the SPU-1 ASP upgrade.
Flexible installation with a detachable controller
The compact transceiver unit can be mounted separately from the control head, making it possible to position the radio away from the dashboard while keeping the operating controls within easy reach.
Optional installation accessories include control-head extension cables, dash-mounting brackets and the Yaesu SJMK-500 swing-head kit.
Use a suitable 13.8V DC supply and correctly fused wiring. For mobile installations, follow Yaesu's recommendations for battery connections, grounding and ventilation. Fixed-station operation requires a regulated supply with adequate current capacity.
What's included?
Standard documentation and small accessories are supplied according to the UK package. The SPU-1 ASP board is not factory-installed. The BU-5 Bluetooth module, SSM-BT20 headset, antenna and external power supply are not standard package contents.
