Vertex Standard FT-1000MP manual USEr-SEt, Sub-AGc, TunEr, CAr oFSt

Menu Selection and Settings

8-6 uSEr-SEt

User Setting - This configures an operating “envi- ronment” selected by pressing and holding in the front- panel [PKT] button. Operating parameters are selected using the Sub VFO knob, while the options are chosen with the Main VFO knob.

Mode - This selects to which mode the custom set- tings are applied. Choose LSB, USB, CW (normal/ reverse), RTTY (normal/reverse), or packet (LSB only).

Display Offset - You can choose a custom offset ±5.000 kHz (in 5-Hz steps) to take effect when the “USER” mode is activated. The default offset is de- pendent upon operating mode.

Rx PLL Offset - You can offset the receiver PLL frequency ±5.000 kHz (in 5-Hz steps) when the “USER” mode is activated.

Rx Carrier - This is used to adjust the receive car- rier injection frequency between 450 ~ 460 kHz. The default injection frequency is dependent upon op- erating mode.

Tx PLL Offset - You can offset the transmitter PLL frequency ±5.000 kHz (in 5-Hz steps) when the “USER” mode is activated.

Tx Carrier - This is used to adjust the transmit car- rier injection frequency between 450.000 ~ 453.700 kHz or 456.300 ~ 460.000 kHz (PKT), 456.300 ~ 460.000 kHz (LSB), 450.000 ~ 453.700 kHz (USB), or between 450.000 ~ 460.000 kHz (all others). The default injection frequency is dependent upon the operating mode.

RTTY Offset (shift) - For operators who desire to use a non-standard mark/space shift (that is, other than 170/425/850 Hz), a custom shift (±5.000 kHz in 5-Hz steps) can be chosen. The mark is the car- rier frequency, while the space is offset above or below the carrier by the value of this setting. For best results, we recommend limiting shift to ±1.000 kHz or less.

Easy Set - If you enjoy operating FAX, SSTV, or PSK-31, you can select on of these for the User mode. The carrier and offset options for both set- tings come factory pre-configured and optimized for best operation.

8-7 Sub-AGc

SUB VFO Receiver AGC - Selects automatic, slow, or fast AGC recovery time for the Sub receiver.

8-8 tunEr

Antenna Tuner - Enables or disables the internal automatic antenna tuner unit for operation.

8-9 cAr oFSt

Carrier Point Offset - This allows shifting the car- rier point (IF passband) on both Tx and Rx to tailor the received audio response, as well as your transmitted voice audio. This can be used to customize your signal for your own voice characteristics. Seven individual carrier settings are selected with the Sub VFO dial, while offsets are adjusted (in 10-Hz steps) using the Main VFO dial:

Rx LSB Carrier - Adjusts the receiver carrier point for LSB throughout the range of –200 ~ +500 Hz.

Tx LSB Carrier - Adjusts the transmitter carrier point for LSB throughout the range of –200 ~ +500 Hz.

Processor LSB - Adjusts the speech processor car- rier point for LSB throughout the range of –200 ~ +500 Hz.

Rx USB Carrier - Adjusts the receiver carrier point for USB throughout the range of –200 ~ +500 Hz.

Tx USB Carrier - Adjusts the transmitter carrier point for USB throughout the range of –200 ~ +500 Hz.

Processor USB - Adjusts the speech processor carrier point for USB throughout the range of –200 ~ +500 Hz.

Tx AM Carrier - Adjusts the transmitter carrier point for AM throughout the range of ±3000 Hz.

Note: See the table on the next page for a com- plete list of filter offsets according to mode, and cus- tom frequency and display offsets.
