FUNCTIONS FOR TRANSMIT
The IC-7200 has a built-in circuit for measuring an-
tenna SWR—no external equipment is necessary.

to select the SWR meter.
Push

to transmit, then read the actual SWR
on the meter.

1.5 may indicate your antenna is out of its well-
matched frequency range. If over 2.0, check antenna
and cable connections.

Split lock function
Accidentally releasing
RIT
while rotating
[DIAL]
changes the receive frequency. To prevent this, use
both the split lock and dial lock functions to change
the transmit frequency only. The split lock function
cancels the dial lock function while holding down
RIT
during split frequency operation.
The dial lock’s effectiveness during split frequency
operation can be selected in the Set mode for both
receive and transmit frequencies; or only the receive
frequency. (p. 10-10)
When the split lock function is ON, the transmit fre-
quency cannot be adjusted by rotating
[DIAL]
while
transmitting, even if the lock function is not ON.
Set the split lock function ON in the Set mode.
