FUNCTIONS FOR RECEIVE
2001 NEW

The noise reduction function reduces noise compo-
nents and picks out desired signals which are buried
in noise. The received signals are converted to digital
signals and then the desired signals are separated
from the noise.

ON.

w

level.

Deep rotation of the [NR] control results in audio sig-
nal masking or distortion. Set the [NR] control for
maximum readability.
