Force a Full Tune Cycle:
Sometimes, if you are transmitting on a previously tuned frequency, but something has
slightly changed in your antenna system (maybe the antenna was re-oriented, for example),
performing a memory recall tune will find a stored match that is acceptable, but is not as optimal
as could be. In this case, forcing a full tune will cause the YT-450 to seek a better match than the
match already stored in memory for this frequency.
To force a full tuning cycle, press and hold the
Tune
button on the front panel of the YT-
450 until the
Status LED
lights up, and keep holding until the
Status LED
goes out again.
Release the
Tune
button once the
Status LED
goes out. A full tuning cycle will begin. When
tuning is complete, the transceiver will be restored to its previous operating mode and power
level.
You will notice that the radio toggles between VFO A and VFO B before and after a tuning
cycle. This is normal. Be aware that the YT-450 tunes in
AM
mode. The microphone input is
live during tuning, so anything you say will be heard while tuning!
