• Mode select
This item is available in all modes, and allows you to sim-
plify operation by inhibiting the selection of unneeded op-
erating modes during normal operation. For example if you
are operating mobile and only plan on using LSB and USB
modes, use “MODE SELECTION” to inhibit access to all
other modes (CW, RTTY and AM), thereby making selec-
tion of LSB and USB quick and easy.
The default is on for all operating modes. To toggle an op-
erating mode on or off, push [MODE] one or more times
until the desired mode is displayed. Then rotate the main
dial to set on or off.
• RF/SQL VR
The [RF/SQL] control can be set as the RF/squelch control
or automatic (acts as squelch in AM modes; as RF in
SSB/CW/RTTY modes) or the squelch control. (See p. 20)
The default is rS (RF/squelch).
• Beep level
This item adjusts the confirmation beep level.
The default is 50.
• Band edge beep
A beep sounds when an operating frequency enters or exits
a transmit frequency range. This functions independent of
the confirmation beep setting.
The default is on.
• Side-tone level
This item adjusts the CW side-tone level.
The default is 30.
• Beep
A beep sounds each time a switch is pushed to confirm it.
This function can be turned OFF for silent operation.
The default is on.
