Selecting a tuning step

What are tuning steps?

Tuning steps are the frequency change increments when you rotate the tuning control or operate a scan. The following steps are available: 0.1, 0.5, 1, 5, 6.25, 8, 9, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 100 kHz and user programmable tuning steps (p. 66).

It is important to set the proper tuning step for the type of station you want to listen to. Some tuning steps are deter- mined by frequency band or receive mode and others are set by tradition.

Generally speaking, if you set a tuning step smaller than that needed you will still be able to tune a station you want (or scan it), however, tuning (or scan- ning) will not be efficient. On the other hand, if you select a tuning step which is too large, you may not be able to find the station you are looking for.

1.Call up the tuning step set mode

Once you have selected VFO mode and the desired receive mode, while pushing [FUNC], push [(MODE)TS].

2. Select the tuning step

1Rotate [DIAL] to select the desired tuning step.

2Push [CLR] to return to VFO mode after the selection.
