A Word About Tuning Etiquette
Be sure to use a vacant frequency when tuning. With today’s crowded ham bands this
is often difficult. However, causing interference to other hams should be avoided
whenever possible. The RT-600’s very short tuning cycle minimizes the impact of
tuning transmissions.
Care and Maintenance
The RT-600 tuner and RC-600 controller are essentially maintenance-free. You
should always strictly observe the power limits specified in this manual. The outer
cases may be cleaned as needed with a soft cloth slightly dampened with household
cleaning solution. As with any modern electronic device, the RT-600 and RC-600 can
be damaged by temperature extremes, water leakage, impact, or static discharge.
LDG strongly recommends using a good quality, properly installed lightning arrestor
in the antenna lead.

Two-Year Transferrable Warranty
Your LDG product is warranted against manufacturer defects in parts and labor for
two full years from the date of purchase. This two-year warranty is transferable; when
you sell or give away your LDG product include the original sales receipt, and the
two-year warranty goes with the product to the new owner. There is no need to
complete a warranty card or to register an LDG product; your receipt establishes
eligibility for warranty service, so be sure to save it. Include a copy of your receipt
whenever you send your product to LDG for warranty repair. Products sent to LDG
without a receipt are considered requests for out-of-warranty repair. The warranty
does not cover damage or abuse; a failure caused by the customer or by a natural
calamity (e.g. lightning), as determined by LDG, is not covered under the two-year
warranty. Damage can be caused by failure to observe the product’s published
limitations and specifications, or by not following good Amateur practice.
