With dual concentric potentiometer 11 (fig.1) adjust proper audio level. Outer knob
adusts receiver RF gain. Inner knob sets audio AF level. Rotating both knobs
clockwise increase the gain.
S-meter
Shows signal strength in relative S units:
S1 to S9+60db
7.6. Transmitter operation
It is considered that all receiver adjustments and preferences are done prior
transmitting with the equipment.
Connect iambic paddle, straight key 8 fig.2 if you intend to work CW or microphone 5
fig.1 if you intend to work phone.
7.6.1. CW transmit
Key speed – select electronic keyer speed by rotating encoder 2 (5-45WPM). Selected
speed in WPM is indicated on sub display.
Side tone (pitch) – Enter menu 19 and adjust desired pitch (default value is 600Hz)
Monitor level – CW sidetone level. Long press encoder 2 until mоnitor level is shown.
Rotate until proper level is adjusted.
Power – short press encoder 1 until power level is indicated on sub display then
rotate to set desired output power (5-50W)
Delay – Enter menu 8 and set proper delay time (0 – 1.2S). Full QSK mode is enabled
once DELAY time is set to 0.
Start transmitting with the paddle and control RF power output, SWR and ALC level
by short press of MTR
MNU
button
7.6.2. SSB transmission
Adjust MIC gain level via Encoder 2.
Enter menu 2 - Line In and make sure parameter is OFF
Adjust monitor level – Long press encoder 2 then rotating it adjusts the level
between 0 (off) and 10. When value between 1 – 10 is selected
icon appears on
LCD.
Press side button PTT of the microphone and start speaking against the microphone
and control ALC level. If TX/ALC LED on front panel flashes too much – reduce mic
gain via rotating encoder 2
ALC level must be kept in the zone shown.
For better result listen to your signal on
control receiver. Excessive drive may cause
distortion in the output signal and splatter
interference.
VOX operation.
