The Clarifier is usually used for receiver offset tuning. However, for DX pile-ups where
the DX station is using a split of less than 10 kHz, the TX Clarifier function is also the
quickest way to set the transmitter to the desired offset frequency.
7. Rotate the
MULTI
function knob to set the desired transmitter offset. A maximum split
of ±9.998 kHz may be set.
8. To exit from TX Clarifier operation, press the [
CLAR
] key once more.
