RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT
■
Quick split function
When you find a DX station, an important
consideration is how to set the split frequency.
When you hold down the
[SPLIT] switch for 1 second,
the split frequency operation is turned ON, and
the sub readout frequency and operating mode is
equalized to the main readout, then enters standby
for transmit frequency input.
This shortens the time needed to begin split
frequency operation.
The quick split function is ON by default.
For your convenience, it can be turned OFF in the
Others set mode. (p. 137)
In this case, the
[SPLIT] switch does not equalize the
main and sub readout frequencies.
q
Suppose you are operating at 21.290 MHz (USB)
in VFO mode.
w
Hold down
[SPLIT] for 1 second.
• Split frequency operation is turned ON.
• [SPLIT] indicator lights.
• The sub readout frequency and operating mode is
equalized to the main readout.
• The sub readout enters standby for transmit frequency
input and “ ” appears.
• During FM mode operation, the sub readout frequency
shifts from the main readout frequency according to the
Others set mode setting. (p. 137)
• The tone encoder function is turned ON in the FM
mode.
e
Rotate the main dial to set the transmit frequency,
or input the transmit frequency using the keypad
and
[F-INP ENT], or input a shift frequency using
the keypad and [SPLIT].
• “ ” disappears when [F-INP ENT] is pushed.
• Offset frequency setting with the keypad and [SPLIT].
[Example]
To transmit on 1 kHz higher frequency:
- Push
[1.8 1] then [SPLIT].
To transmit on 3 kHz lower frequency:
- Push
[GENE •], [7 3] then [SPLIT].
D Split lock function
The split lock function is convenient for changing only
the transmit frequency. When the split lock function is
not used, accidentally releasing
[XFC] while rotating
the main dial, changes the receive frequency.
The split lock function is OFF by default, but can be
turned ON in the Others set mode. (p. 137)
q
While split frequency operation is ON, hold down
[SPEECH/LOCK] for 1 second to activate the split
lock function.
• [LOCK] indicator lights.
w
While holding down [XFC], rotate the main dial to
change the transmit frequency.
• If you accidentally release [XFC] while rotating the
main dial, the receive frequency does NOT change.
