BASIC OPERATIONS | 3 |
The drive gain is active for all modes other than SSB mode with speech compressor OFF. The [DRIVE] control adjusts the amplifying gain at the driver stage.
Before transmitting, monitor your selected operating frequency to make sure transmitting won’t cause interference to other stations on the same frequency.
qPush [METER] (MF2) to select the ALC meter.
wPush [PTT] (microphone; SSB with [COMP] ON, AM or FM), key down (CW) or push TRANSMIT (RTTY or PSK) to transmit.
eWhile talking into the microphone, keying down or transmitting, rotate [DRIVE] so that the ALC meter reading is between 30 to 50% of the ALC scale. (see left)
•Talk into the microphone at your normal voice level. rRelease [PTT], stop keying or push TRANSMIT
again to return to receive.
