your transceiver or receiver. The SP-34 can be con-
nected to two transceivers or receivers using these
jacks.
u
OUTPUT JACK [OUTPUT]
This jack outputs audio signals after they pass
through the audio filters specified by the front panel
filter selector switches. This is useful when operat-
ing terminal units such as RTTY, PSK31 or other
data communication modes.
Regardless of the [SPEAKER OFF] switch position,
audio signals are output from this jack.
NOTE:
When the [SPEAKER OFF] switch is pushed
in, be sure to turn OFF all of the filters [HPF1],
[HPF2], [LPF1] and [LPF2].
Otherwise the audio signals from the [OUTPUT]
