SETTING A FREQUENCY
■
Tuning step selection
When using the tuning dial to change the frequency, or when
a scan function is activated, the frequency changes in incre-
ments determined by the set tuning step. This can be
changed if desired.
The following tuning step are available.
• 0.01 kHz (10 Hz) • 0.02 kHz (20 Hz) • 0.05 kHz (50 Hz)
• 0.1 kHz (100 Hz) • 0.5 kHz (500 Hz) • 1 kHz
• 2.5 kHz • 5 kHz • 6.25 kHz
• 8.33 kHz • 9 kHz • 10 kHz
• 12.5 kHz • 15 kHz • 20 kHz
• 25 kHz • 30 kHz • 50 kHz
• 100 kHz • 125 kHz • 150 kHz
• 200 kHz • 500 kHz • 1000 kHz (1 MHz)
q
Push [V/MHz•SCAN] to select VFO mode, if necessary.
w
Push [TS•MODE] to enter tuning step select mode.
e
Rotate [DIAL] to select the desired tuning step.
r
Push any switch to exit tuning step select mode.

Setting a frequency
q
Rotate [DIAL] to set the frequency.
• If VFO mode is not selected, push [V/MHz•SCAN] to select VFO
mode.
• The frequency changes in the selected tuning steps.
w
To change the frequency band or in 1 MHz (10 MHz) steps,
push [V/MHz•SCAN], then rotate [DIAL].
• Pushing and holding [V/MHz•SCAN] for 1 sec. starts scan func-
tion. If scan starts, push [V/MHz•SCAN] again to cancel it.
While the band selection mode is selected,
the digits below 100 kHz disappear.
While 1 MHz tuning step is
selected, the 1 MHz digit
blinks. While 10 MHz tuning step is
selected, the 10 MHz digit
blinks.
