OPERATION

BEFORE STARTING

Before plugging in the transceiver, check your in- stallation to make sure your AC voltage is correct, and that your ground and antenna are connected as de- scribed in the Installation chapter. Then preset the fol- lowing controls as indicated:

[POWER], [ANT RX], [MOX], [VOX], and [AF REV] buttons all off

AGC selector to AUTO [IPO] button to off

AF GAIN and SUB AF knobs matched at approxi- mately 9 o’clock

MIC, PROC, RF PWR, MONI, SQL, SUB SQL, and NB knobs all counterclockwise

RF GAIN knob fully clockwise

SHIFT, WIDTH, and NOTCH knobs 12 o’clock (de-

tent)

[LOCK], [FAST], [SPOT], [BK-IN], and [KEYER] switches all off.

Connect your microphone and CW key/paddle, then plug the AC cord into the wall outlet.

MARK-V FT-1000MP

MENU PROGRAMMING

The MARK-VFT-1000MPincorporates a wealth of operating functions and features. For flexibility in con- figuring these capabilities, and to keep the front panel controls to a minimum, an internal Menu Programming routine is used. This allows customizing the functions via menu selections that previously required many elaborate DIP switch settings, power-on/button hold- ing routines, or additional front and rear panel controls/ switches. This permits each rig to have a custom “per- sonality” that specifically matches your operating re- quirements, with the capability for easy modification as your requirements change.

Menu programming is enabled by pressing the [FAST] button, followed by [ENT]. You may then rotate the VRF/MEM CH knob to display the desired setting. Each of the settings can be changed or customized, as you like, in this mode. For clarity’s sake, transceiver functions that have several settings or options are ref- erenced to the Menu Programming chapter separately, where details of programming are covered. Descrip- tions for most transceiver functions in this chapter as- sume default (factory-configured) transceiver settings.

There also are some “short-cuts” to certain Menu settings, and these will be described in the appropriate chapters to follow.

RECEIVING

Note: the following procedure assumes the transceiver has not been used before, and not already set for Dual reception. If “DUAL” appears on the display when you switch on the set in the next step, you should press the blue [DUAL] button to return to the single-receiver mode (for now).

Press the [POWER] switch on. The meter and dis- play should light up. If the display is too bright for your taste, it can be switched to a more subdued level using menu selection 3-4(see page 100).

Take a moment to study the display. You should see “VFO” at the bottom, with the operating frequency of the Main VFO just above the main tuning knob. To the right of that is the Clarifier offset (“0.00”), followed by the memory channel number (“1-01” CH by default). At the right side of the display are the current mode and frequency of SUB VFO-B, which we’ll talk about later.

AMATEUR BAND SELECTION

Press a keypad key (between the two tuning knobs) to select a band for which your antenna is de- signed. Refer to the white “MHz” labels, and press the appropriate one.

Key Beeper

Pressing a front-panel button normally produces a beep. Its volume is independent of receiver vol- ume, and can be set by adjusting a trimmer via a hole on the bottom panel of the transceiver case.

To change the pitch of the beeper, recall menu sec- tion 4-2(page 101) and select the desired pitch (between 220 and 7040 Hz) by turning the dial. You can also disable the beeper via menu selection 4-1(also page 101).
