OPERATION

RECEIVING

Panel Up/Down Buttons

Press the large UP(p) and DOWN(q) buttons below the key- pad to step around the band in 100-kHz steps, and then tune around the band a bit with the tuning knob.

If the “FAST” icon appears on the display, pressing these buttons will cause stepping in 1 MHz increments.

Microphone Up/Dwn Buttons

If your microphone has UP and DWN buttons, (such as the MH-31B8D) you can press them momentarily to tune in 10-Hz steps, or hold them to start VFO scan- ning. If it has a FST button, you can use it to duplicate the function of the [FAST] key on the transceiver front panel.

VFO Channel Stepping

This feature utilizes the VRF/MEM CH knob at the upper right corner, and i s u n i q u e b e c a u s e i t a l l o w s “channellizing” the VFO for quick, yet precise, frequency navigation. For ex- ample, setting this feature to 1 kHz pro- vides an easy wasy of steping around an SSB band, looking for activity. Many bands such as AM broad- cast, HF maritime, aeronautical, and citizen’s band in- corporate assigned channels using discrete frequency steps. By configuring this feature for the service in in- terest, you can hop from one channel to the next with- out having to zero in (manually) each station’s signal with the VFO knob.

To enable operation using the VFO Step feature, it first must be enabled by press and holding the VRF/ MEM CH knob for ½ second.

Once enabled, rotating VRF/MEM CH knob as you would to tune a channelized FM rig. While VFO chan- nel stepping is enabled, “- - - -” appears in the channel number display, until the knob is pressed in again to disable channel stepping. Channel stepping is config- ured by menu selection 1-5on page 99; also see Gen- eral Coverage Reception.

To disable the VFO Step feature, just press the VRF/ MEM CH knob momentarily.

Display Settings

Display Mode - By default, switching to and from CW, PKT or RTTY modes causes the display to change by the amount of offset selected by the CW PITCH (page 56), RTTY, and PKT tone & offset configurations (pages 15 and 16). If you prefer the display to remain unchanged when switching modes, this can be done by setting menu selection 3-0to BFO (carrier) display on page 100. However, the actual carrier offsets configured by the menu selections, relative to the display and IF bandpass are unaffected, regardless of the setting for menu selection 3-0.

Display Resolution - Although the MARK-V FT- 1000MP DDS (Direct Digital Synthesizer) tunes in frequency increments as small as .625 Hz, display resolution is limited to 10 Hz. The 10 Hz and 100 Hz digits display can be turned off, as desired, if smaller frequency resolution is not needed (tuning steps are not affected).

Select the desired display resolution via menu se- lection 3-1on page 100.

VFO & Panel Locking Schemes

The locking scheme for the MAIN VFO-A [LOCK] button offers three choices. By default, pressing the [LOCK] button so that “LOCK” appears only disables the tuning knob (it still turns, but does noth- ing). However, it can disable all front panel keys, or else all except the primary function keys. To se- lect the locking scheme, recall menu function 8-1, as shown on page 104.

Important! - Holding the [LOCK] button without releasing it activates the dual VFO tracking fea- ture, which is discussed later in the chapter.
