Instruction Manual Errata
Know errors in the Instruction Manual, by page number.
Page:2 Incorrect Page References
(12) AF CONTROL references p.12, should be p.11
Page:6 External speaker and remote interface jacks are swapped.

Looking at the rear of the rig, the REMOTE jack is on the left and the SPEAKER jack is on
the right.
Page 68 shows the connections properly.

(8) RTY p.30 should be p.29
(9) TON p.35 should be p.34

Page:15 BAND EDGE BEEPS simply do not work as expected.
This is more a failing of the radio itself than it is an error in the manual. For more info, refer
to the rest of the FAQ.
Page:19 SSB TX Tone affects more than SSB
The "SSB TX Tone" setting affects the tonal quality of AM and FM transmissions as well as
SSB.
Page:22 TRANSMIT button does not transmit on CW
This is more of a clarification than an error. In every other mode (AM, SSB, FM, RTTY),
the TRANSMIT button actually "keys" the 746 to transmit a signal. In CW mode, you have
to activate the keyer as well.
Most operators use QSK when operating CW, which makes the TRANSMIT button
superfluous.
