received. This function is active while in the CW mode
is selected.

zero beat with the received signal.
Zero beat means that two signals are exactly the same
frequency.

“AUTO TUNE” blinks when auto tune function is activat-

If

the auto tune function changes the RIT frequency, not
the displayed frequency.
IMPORTANT!
When receiving a weak signal, or receiving a signal with
interference, the automatic tuning function may tune the
receiver to an undesired signal.
If the off-frequency signal is too far away, the Auto tune func-
tion may not work. In that case, an error beep sounds.

CW sidetone function
D
When the transceiver is in the receive mode (and the
Break-in function is OFF— p. 79), you can listen to the
CW sidetone without actually transmitting.
You can also use the CW sidetone to practice CW send-
ing, but be sure to turn OFF the Break-in function.
The CW sidetone level can be adjusted in the “Side
Tone Level” item of the Keyer Set mode (p. 54).
