MAINTENANCE
A very accurate frequency counter is required to
calibrate the frequency of the transceiver.
However, a rough check may be performed by
receiving radio station WWV, WWVH, or other
standard frequency signals.
CAUTION: The IC-7600 has been thoroughly
adjusted and tested at the factory before being
shipped. You should not have to re-calibrate it.

function is not activated.
e
Set the frequency to the standard frequency station
minus 1 kHz.
• When receiving WWV or WWVH (at 15.00000 MHz) as
a standard frequency, set the operating frequency for
14.99900 MHz.
• Other standard frequencies can be used.
