BASIC RECEIVE FUNCTIONS
■
Receive mode selection
Receive modes are determined by the physical properties of
the radio signals. The receiver has 5 receive modes: USB
LSB, CW, AM, WFM and FM modes. The mode selection is
stored independently in each memory channel.
Additionally IC-PCR2500 has DV or P25 mode when specific
optional unit UT-118 or UT-122 is installed, respectively. The
Sub band of IC-PCR2500 can select AM, FM and WFM mode
only.
Typically, AM mode is used for the AM broadcast stations
(0.495–1.620 MHz), air band (118–135.995 MHz), and short-
wave broadcasts. WFM is used for FM broadcast stations
(76–107.9 MHz).
