If you assign the Spectrum Scope Monitor feature to the
key (see page 40), you may view operating activ-
ity on channels above and below the current operating
channel while operating in the VFO, Memory Tune, and
PMS modes.
The display indicates the relative signal strength on
channels immediately adjacent to the current operating
frequency.
Set the radio to the VFO mode by pressing the
key, if necessary.
Press (or press and hold
in) the
key to acti-
vate the Spectrum Scope
Monitor.
Once the Spectrum Scope Monitor is activated,
press the
key to change the visible bandwidth
between ±15 channels and ±30 channels (default:
±30 channels). The visible bandwidth, however,
depends on the selected channel step size, so match
the channel step to those typically used in your area.
To turn the Spectrum Scope Monitor off and oper-
ate on the centered (and displayed) channel, simply
press the
PTT
switch.
Note 1
: Audio output will be interrupted during Spec-
trum Analyzer operation. This is normal.
Note 2
: The Spectrum Scope Monitor may not be acti-
vated on the BRS Memories.
