LCD Numerals 

Upper center of display.  This shows the frequency or the 
channel which is being used by the SG-2000.  Just left of the 
numerals is a flag which indicated "CHN" if channel 
information is displayed or "FRQ" if frequency is being 
displayed. 

A3J   A3H 
A3A   CW 
USB   LSB 
VOC   TLX 
SPK   SQL 
TND   ATT 

NB

 

Upper right corner of radio.  These indicators show the 
current mode of transmitting/receiving (A3J, A3H, A3A, 
CW), whether upper or lower sideband is selected (USB 
LSB), status of the voice/telex filter (VOC, TLX), whether 
speaker and squelch are activated (SPK, SQL), whether the 
antenna coupler is reporting tuned system (TND), if the 20 
dB receive attenuator is active (ATT) and if the optional noise 
blanker (NB) is active.

Timer

 

Lower left corner of display.  Indicates  on or off status of 
radio timer. 

Small Numerals

 

Lower  left corner of display.   Displays either the date or the 
time from the SG-2000  system clock. 

FWD 

or  

SWR

 

Lower left center of display. In receive, the letter S is dis-played 
and the bar graph to the right of the S will indicate relative 
signal strength. In transmit, either FWD or SWR will be 
displayed. Forward power is transmitter power going to the 
antenna. Alternatively, in transmit, SWR may be dis-played. 
SWR is an abbreviation for "standing wave ratio", the ratio of 
power going to the antenna compared with power coming back 
from the antenna which creates standing waves on the antenna 
feed line. SWR should always be as low as possible. A good
