Press Enter and highlight Transmitter On/Off.

Press Up or Down diamond key so ON appears in Edit box.

Highlight Transmitter Attenuator (0 dB corresponds to
maximum output level (+50 dBmV on newer 3SR).

Determine the output level by subtracting the attenuator
setting from +50 dBmV.

Highlight Transmitter Frequency and enter desired
frequency.
