The default frequency step size when turning the Tuning control to change the frequency is 10 Hz for SSB/ CW/ FSK, and 100 Hz for AM/ FM. However, you can change the frequency step size to 1 Hz for SSB/ CW/ FSK, and 10 Hz for AM/ FM.

1Press [FINE (F.LOCK)].

• “” appears.

2Turn the Tuning control to select the exact frequency.

3To quit the function, press [FINE (F.LOCK)] again.

• “” disappears.

The default Tuning control adjustment rate is 500. This represents the number of pulses the Tuning control generates in a complete revolution. Each pulse changes the tuning frequency based on the current frequency step size (the frequency step size for the Tuning control is 10 Hz for SSB/ CW/ FSK and 100 Hz for AM/ FM). For example, in SSB mode the frequency step size is 10 Hz, so the frequency would change by 5,000 Hz in a complete revolution of the Tuning control. The adjustment rate of the Tuning control can be lowered to 250 pulses per revolution or increased to 1000 pulses per revolution.

1Press [MENU], then press [Q-M.IN]/ [Q-MR]or turn the MULTI/CH control to select Menu No. 11.

2Press [M.IN]/ [SCAN (SG.SEL)] to select “250”, “500”, or “1000” (default).

3Press [MENU] to exit Menu mode.

This function allows you to copy the frequency and modulation mode of the active VFO to the inactive VFO.

1Select the frequency and mode on VFO A or VFO B.

2Press and hold [A/B (A=B)].

•The frequency and mode selected in step 1 are duplicated to the inactive VFO.

3Press [A/B (A=B)] to confirm that the frequency was copied to other VFO.

RIT provides the ability to change your reception frequency by ±9.99 kHz in steps of 10 Hz without changing your transmission frequency. If the Fine Tuning ([FINE (F.LOCK)]) function is ON, the frequency step size becomes 1 Hz (±9.999 kHz). RIT works equally well with all modulation modes and while using VFO or Memory Recall mode.

1Press [RIT].

• “ ” and the RIT offset appear.

2If required, press [CL] to reset the RIT offset to 0.

3Turn the RIT/ XIT control to change your reception frequency.

4To turn RIT OFF, press [RIT].

•The reception frequency is returned to the frequency that was selected prior to step 1.

Note: When storing the frequency in a Memory channel with the RIT function ON, the RIT offset frequency is added to or subtracted from the VFO frequency. The calculated data is then stored in the Memory channel.

When using a mode other than FM, AGC selects the time constant for the Automatic Gain Control circuit.

Selecting a slow time constant will cause the receiver gain and S-meter readings to react slowly to large input changes. A fast time constant causes the receiver gain and the S-meter to react quickly to changes in the input signal. A fast AGC setting is particularly useful in the following situations:

•Tuning rapidly

•Receiving weak signals

•Receiving high-speed CW

For your convenience, the following default AGC time constant has already been programmed.

SSB: Slow (“

CW: Fast (“

You can pre-set up to 20 values (1 ~ 20) for the FAST/SLOW time constant (release time).

To change the default time constant:

1Press [AGC/T (SEL)] to select FAST or SLOW.

•The AGC time constant icon appears on the

display (“

”: Slow, “

”: Fast).

2Press and hold [AGC/T (SEL)] to display the time constant pre-set value.

3Turn the MULTI/CH control to set your desired time constant value.

4If you want to turn the AGC OFF, press and hold [CW T. (AGC OFF)].

•“ ” appears on the display.

Note: You cannot adjust the time constant in FM mode.
