Operating Manual
During Split operation, the VFO-A register will be used for reception, while the VFO-B register will be used for transmission. If you press the [SPLIT] button once more, Split operation will be cancelled.
You may also press the [(VFO-A)TX] Indicator/Switch to return transmit frequency control to the VFO-A register, thereby canceling Split operation.
Advice:
During normal (non-split) VFO-A operation, you may simply press the [(VFO-B)TX] Indicator/Switch (located on the upper right of the [CLAR/VFO-B] knob) to engage Split operation. The [(VFO-B)TX] Indicator/Switch will glow Red when you press the [(VFO-B)TX] Indicator/Switch.
During Split operation, pressing the [A<>B] button will reverse the contents of the VFO-A and VFO-B. Press the [A<>B] button once more to return to the original frequency alignment.
During Split operation, you may listen to the TX frequency temporarily while pressing the [TXW] button located on the bottom left of the Main Tuning Dial knob. It is possible to set different operating modes (for example, LSB and USB) on the two VFOs used during Split operation.
During Split operation, it also is possible to set the VFO-A and VFO-B to different Amateur bands if you used the multi band antenna.
Quick Split Operation
The Quick Split feature allows you to set a one-touch offset of +5 kHz to be applied to your radio’s VFO-B (transmit) frequency, compared to the VFO-A frequency.
1.Start with regular transceiver operation on the VFO-A. [(VFO-A)RX] Indicator/Switch: “ON” (LED glows Green) [(VFO-A)TX] Indicator/Switch: “ON” (LED glows Red) [(VFO-B)RX] Indicator/Switch: “OFF” (LED Off) [(VFO-B)TX] Indicator/Switch: “OFF” (LED Off)
2.Press and hold in the [SPLIT] button for two seconds to engage the Quick Split feature, and apply a frequency 5 kHz above the VFO-A frequency to the VFO-B frequency register. Press and hold in the [SPLIT] button for two seconds to increment the VFO-A frequency to +5 kHz.
The VFO configuration will then be:
[(VFO-A)RX] Indicator/Switch: “ON” (LED glows Green)
