!4Multi-purpose keypad

Consists of 10 buttons that are used for inputting numeric data. Also used for other functions:

•[M.IN]: Writes data into memory channels

{page 54}, selects Memory Scroll mode {page 56}, and adds items to the Quick Menu {page 24}.

•[M>VFO]: Transfers data from a memory channel to a VFO {page 56}.

•[SCAN]: Starts and stops Scan functions {page 60}.

•[CH 1], [CH 2], [CH 3], [CH 4]: Selects functions associated with the internal electronic keyer {page 32} and the DRU-3 Digital Recording Unit {page 67}.

•[REC]: Selects the record mode for the DRU-3 Digital Recording Unit {page 67}.

•[F.LOCK]: Controls the Frequency Lock function {page 64}.

•[CLR]: Used to exit from, abort, or reset various functions. Also used for erasing memory channels {page 57} or locking out {page 62} memory channels from the scan list.

!5AGC control

Turn to adjust the AGC time constant after selecting the manual AGC mode {page 44}.

!6KEY SPEED control

In CW mode, turn clockwise to increase the internal electronic keyer speed and counterclockwise to decrease the speed {page 32}.

!7PROC control

When using the Speech Processor in SSB or AM mode, adjusts the compression level. Turning the control clockwise increases compression {pages 23, 46}.

!8MONI control

When using the Transmit Monitor function, adjusts the volume level of the monitored transmit audio. Also adjusts the volume of the CW sidetone. Turning the control clockwise increases the volume {pages 30, 46}.

!9MIC connector

Connect a compatible microphone, then snugly screw down the connector locking ring {page 4}.

@0CAR control

In CW, FSK, or AM mode, adjusts the carrier level {pages 23, 30, 40, 41}. When using the Speech Processor in SSB mode, adjusts the processor output {page 46}. Turning the control clockwise increases the carrier level or the processor output.

@1DELAY control

When using the VOX function or the CW Break-in function, adjusts the time period that the transceiver waits before changing from the transmit mode back to the receive mode. Turning the control clockwise increases the delay {pages 31, 45}.

@2MIC gain control

In SSB or AM mode, adjusts the level of microphone gain. Turning the control clockwise increases the gain {pages 23, 29, 40}.

@3PWR control

Adjusts the transmit output power in all modes. Turning the control clockwise increases the output power {page 23}.

@4QUICK MEMO M.IN button

Press to write data into Quick memory {page 59}.

@5QUICK MEMO MR button

Press to recall data from Quick memory {page 59}.
