VX-3R Operating Manual
5. When you have made your selection, press the PTT switch to save the new setting and exit to normal
operation.
Changing the TX Deviation Level
In many areas of the world, channel congestion has required that operating channels be closely spaced. In
such operating environments, it often is required that operators use reduced deviation levels, so as to
reduce the potential for interference to users on adjacent channels. The VX-3R includes a simple method of
accomplishing this:
1. Press and hold in the [TXPO] key for one second to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the Set Mode Item 35: HLF.DEV.
Note: Do not forget to pull the DIAL knob to rotate the DIAL knob.
3. Press the [TXPO] key momentarily to enable adjustment of this Set Mode Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob to set this Set Mode Item to “ON.” In this configuration (HALF DEVIATION
active), the transmitter’s deviation will be approximately ±2.5 kHz.
5. When you have made your selection, press the PTT switch to save the new setting and exit to normal
operation.
R.F. Says: The “normal” setting for the deviation (when this Menu Item is set to “OFF”) is ±5 kHz.
Changing the Microphone Gain
At the factory, a microphone gain has been programmed that should be satisfactory for the internal
microphone. If you use an after-market microphone, you may wish to set a different microphone gain level.
1. Press and hold in the [TXPO] key for one second to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 48: MCGAIN.
Note: Do not forget to pull the DIAL knob to rotate the DIAL knob.
3. Press the [TXPO] key momentarily to enable adjustment of this Set Mode Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob to select the desired microphone gain.
5. When you have made your selection, press the PTT switch to save the new setting and exit to normal
operation.
My Bands Operation
The “My Bands” feature allows you to select several operating bands, and make only those bands available
for selection via the [BAND] buttons.
For example, if you do not need the reception of the SW and Air bands, you may skip (omit) these bands
from the band selection loop.
