FUNCTIONS FOR RECEIVE 5

■Simple band scope

This DSP-based simple band scope allows you to dis- play conditions on the selected band, as well as rela- tive strength of signals. The IC-7000 has two modes for the spectrum indication—one is fix mode, and an- other one is center mode.

➥Select G-1(Scope).

•Push and hold [MENU/GRP] for 1 sec. once or twice

to select the menu group G (Graphic).

•Push [MENU/GRP] momentarily one or more times to select the menu G-1(Scope).

NOTE: The IC-7000’s simple band scope can mon-

itor the displayed frequency during sweeping. Both

of the receving and sweeping functions use the

same receive circuit which switch alternatively es-

pecially at high speed. Thus this switching sound

during may be irritating to listen to. If so, set the de-

sired monitoring sound, “FAST Sweep Sound,”

or change the fast sweep setting, “FAST Sweep,” in the scope set mode (p. 73).

Quick entry

➥Push [Y(BAND)] for 1 sec. to turn the simple

band scope ON and OFF.

•Push [Z(MENU/GRP)] also to turn OFF.

[MENU/GRP]

DFix mode

Displays signals within the specified frequency range. The selected band conditions can be observed at a glance when using this mode.

[F-1]
[MENU/GRP]	[F-2]	[F-3]	[F-4]

NOTE: If there is a lot of signal noise, turn the pre-

amp OFF and the attenuator ON (p. 74) to reduce

the input level and improve the readability of the scope.

q Set a mode and frequency. w Select G-1(Scope).

•Push and hold [MENU/GRP] for 1 sec. once or twice

to select the menu group G (Graphic).

•Push [MENU/GRP] momentarily one or more times to select the menu G-1(Scope).

e Push [F-3FIX] momentarily to select the fix mode.

•“O” and readout frequency indicator appear when the fix mode is selected.

r Push [F-4SPD] momentarily to select the sweep speed.

•“≈” or “≈≈” appears when Slow speed or Fast speed is selected, respectively.

t Push [F-1SPN] one or more times to select the desired steps.

•±10, 25, 50, 100 and 250 kHz are available.

•Push and hold [F-1SPN] for 1 sec. to select the ±10 kHz step.

•“<” or “>” indicates when the displayed frequency is out of range. The scope center position can be set to the displayed frequency by pushing and holding [F-3FIX] for 1 sec.

•The simple band scope operates in the peak level hold mode. Peak levels are displayed in the background of the current spectrum in a different color until the receive frequency changes. This can be cleared by pushing and holding [F-2HLD] for 1 sec., or deactivated in the scope set mode. (p. 73)

y Push [F-2HLD] to freeze the current spectrum dis- play.

•“H” appears while the function is in use.
