RF POWER (Outer Dual Concentric)
6.
Adjustment of the output power is for AM and FM mode only. Reducing
the power is allowed when communicating with a person who has no
RF GAIN. The normal position of this function is set to maximum, fully
clockwise.
BAND SELECTOR
7.
Rotate this knob to select A, B, C, D, E, F band of operation
MODE(PA/CW/AM/FM/USB/LSB)
8.
This knob allows selecting the modulation mode PA, CW, AM, FM ,
LSB or USB. Your modulation mode has to correspond with the one
of your correspondent. The mode selector changes the mode of
operation of both transmitter and receiver simultaneously.
Frequency Modulation/FM:
for nearby communications on a flat
open field.
Amplitude Modulation/AM:
Communication on a
field
with relief and
obstacles in middle distance (the most used).
Upper and Lower Side Band/USB-LSB:
Used for long distance
communications (according to the propagation conditions).
CLARIFIER
9.
This is frequency tuning knob which can be set as different modes
(refer to CLA
Specifications in Functions Menu for more details).
PUSH
10.
This is PUSH Key which can be set as different modes (refer to PSH
specifications under Functions Menu for more details).
CHANNEL SELECTOR
11.
Rotate this knob to select any desired channel from forty citizens
band channels. The selected channel appears on the LED directly
above the channel selector knob.
CHANNEL INDICATOR
12.
Numbered LED indicates the selected channel to operate on.
LCD DISPLAY
13.
Display frequency, all kinds of information and icons.
This knob is used to control intervals of echo sound
RF GAIN ( Inner Dual Concentric)
5.
This knob is for adjusting sensitivity during reception. For long
distance communications
RF GAIN
should be set to maximum. RF
GAIN can be reduced to avoid distortion, when your correspondent is
close by and when he does not have RF POWER. The normal setting
of this function is on maximum (fully clockwise).
it is desired that the control be adjusted only to the point where the
receiver background noise or ambient background noise is eliminated.
Turn fully anticlockwise then slowly clockwise until the receiver noise
disappears. Any signal to be received must now be slightly stronger
than the average received noise. Further clockwise rotation will
increase the threshold level which a signal must overcome in order to
be heard. Only strong signals will be heard at a maximum clockwise
setting.
ECHO(Inner Dual Concentric)
3.
This knob is used to control echo e ffect.
TONE (Outer Dual Concentric)
4.
<FRONT PANEL>
OFF/ON/VOLUME(Inner Dual Concentric)
1.
Turn clockwise to switch on
the radio
and set desired volume level.
Under normal operating state, the VOLUME control is used to adjust
the output volume obtained either by the transceiver speaker or the
external speaker or the external PA speaker, if used.
SQUELCH (Outer Dual Concentric)
2.
This control is used to cut off or eliminate receiver background noise in
the absence of an incoming signal. For maximum receiver sensitivity,
