For split TX/RX operation in “casual” pile-ups, where the split is less than 10 kHz, the TX Clarifier (Offset Tuning) feature
may be utilized.
1. Press the CLAR switch (# ). The Red LED imbed-
ded in the switch will light up, and “CLAR” will appear
in the display. The CLAR/VFO-B knob (#
) will
now be enabled for offset tuning of the transmitter.
Advice
Please verify that the lamp to the right of the CLAR/VFO-
B knob is not lit up in Orange. If so, this indicates that this
knob is currently engaged for VFO-B tuning. If the Orange
lamp is lit, press the A/B switch (#
), then press the
CLAR switch, to engage Clarifier operation.
Quick Point
The Clarifier is frequently used for receiver offset tuning. How-
ever, for DX pile-ups where the DX station is using a split of
less than 10 kHz, the TX Clarifier function is usually the quick-
est way to set the transmitter to the desired offset frequency.
2. Press the TX switch (# ), located above and to
the right of the CLAR/VFO-B knob. The “TX”
notation will appear on the frequency display to the
left of the main frequency.
3. Rotate the CLAR/VFO-B knob to set the desired
transmitter offset. A maximum split of ± 9.999 kHz
may be set.
To disengage the transmit Clarifier temporarily, press the
TX switch once more. The “TX” indication will disap-
pear from the frequency display area.
To exit from Clarifier operation, press the CLAR switch
once more. The “CLAR” indication will disappear from
the display.
Advice
To listen to the pile-up calling the DX station, so as to
find the station currently being worked, you may press
the RX switch (#
) (above and to the left of the
CLAR/VFO-B knob). Once you have zeroed in on
the station calling the DX (use the SPOT function on
CW for precise alignment of your frequency), you may
then press the RX switch again to cancel the RX
Clarifier, and return to reception on the DX station’s
frequency.
Just as with receiver Clarifier operation, the amount
of offset from the original VFO frequency will appear
in the small display window.
As with receiver Clarifier operation, when you turn
the TX Clarifier off the last-used offset is not lost, and
will be available if you turn the TX Clarifier back on.
To clear the Clarifier offset, press the CLAR switch.
