7.

Repeat steps 5 and 6 four more times and then average the 
values. 

8.

Use the following equation to determine the Looktime Gate in 
milliseconds. 

9.

Press Key 1 until you reach LOOKTIME GATE and use the 
Arrow Key to enter the Looktime Gate Value you calculated.

10.

If you are finished configuring the FT-70, press Key 5 until you 
reach SYSTEM DISPLAY and then press the Arrow Key to 
return to the Operate Mode.
