Attenuator function

The attenuator prevents a desired signal from distorting when
very strong signals are near the desired frequency or when
very strong electric fields, such as from a broadcasting sta-
tion, are near your location.

Push 

[

ATT]

for 1 sec. to toggle the attenuator function

ON and OFF.

• “ATT” appears when the attenuator function is in use.

RF gain

The receiver gain can be reduced with the RF gain setting.
This may help to remove undesired weak signals while mon-
itoring strong signals. The RF gain may be useful for setting a
minimum level at which to hear signals for SSB/CW modes .

Push 

[

for 1 sec. to enter the RF gain set-

ting condition, then rotate

to select the desired

RF gain level.

• Normally this setting is used maximum level.
• Push
