RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT
■
AGC function
The AGC (auto gain control) controls receiver gain to
produce a constant audio output level even when the
received signal strength is varied by fading, etc.
The transceiver has 3 AGC characteristics (time con-
stant; fast, mid, slow) for non-FM mode.
The FM mode AGC time constant is fixed as
‘FAST’ (0.1 sec.) and AGC time constant cannot be
selected.
• AGC time constant selection
q
Select non-FM mode.
w
Push [AGC] several times to select AGC fast, AGC
medium (MID) or AGC slow.
• Selectable AGC time constant
(unit: sec.)
• Setting the AGC time constant
q
Select the desired mode except FM mode.
w
Push [AGC] for 1 sec. to enter AGC set mode.
e
Push [AGC] several times to select FAST time
constant.
r
Rotate the tuning dial to set the desired time con-
stant for ‘AGC FAST.’
• AGC time constant can be set between 0.1 to 8.0 sec.
(depends on mode) or turned OFF.
• Push [(F-3)DEF] to select a default value.
t
Push [AGC] to select medium time constant.
y
Rotate the tuning dial to set the desired time con-
stant for ‘AGC MID.’
• AGC time constant can be set between 0.1 to 8.0 sec.
(depends on mode) or turned OFF.
• Push [(F-3)DEF] to select a default value.
u
Push [AGC] to select slow time constant.
i
Rotate the tuning dial to set the desired time con-
stant for ‘AGC SLOW.’
• AGC time constant can be set between 0.1 to 8.0 sec.
(depends on mode) or turned OFF.
• Push [(F-3)DEF] to select a default value.
o
Select another mode except FM. Repeat steps
e
to
i
if desired.
!0
