About RX Marker
In the Fixed mode and the Scroll mode, the RX
Marker displays the operating frequency within a
specified frequency range. So, the transceiver always
displays the RX marker in the Scope screen.
In the Center mode, the operating frequency stays in
the center of the screen. Thus, the transceiver does
not display the RX Marker.
L
When the Hold function is ON, the RX Marker is displayed
to indicate the operating frequency’s location.
