use on the Main (VFO-A) register.
The offset of the Sub (VFO-B) from the Main VFO (VFO-A) is programmed via the
Menu, and is set to +5 kHz at the factory. Other offsets may be selected, however,
using the following procedure:
1. Press the [MENU] button to enter the Menu mode.
2. Rotate the Main Tuning Dial knob to select Menu item “031 gene Q SPLIT.”
3. Rotate the [SUB VFO-B] knob to select the desired offset.
The available selections are
-
20kHz ~ +20kHz (factory default: +5 kHz).
4. When you have completed all adjustments, press and hold in the [MENU] button
for two seconds to save the new setting and exit to normal operation. If you only
press the [MENU] button momentarily to exit, any changes you performed will not
be stored.
