RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT
Split frequency operation allows you to transmit and
receive in the same mode on two different frequen-
cies. The split frequency operation is basically per-
formed using 2 frequencies on the main and sub
readouts.
Following is an example of setting 21.290 MHz for re-
ceiving and 21.310 MHz for transmitting.
q
Set 21.290 MHz (USB) in VFO mode.
w
Push [SPLIT] momentarily, then push [CHANGE]
for 2 sec.
- The quick split function is much more convenient for
selecting the transmit frequency. See the next section
for details.
- Equalized transmit frequency and
“
” appear on
the LCD.
-
“
” appears to show the transmit frequency’s read-
out.
e
Rotate the tuning dial while pushing [XFC] to set
the transmit frequency to 21.310 MHz.
- The transmit frequency can be monitored while push-
ing [XFC] or using dualwatch.
r
Now you can receive on 21.290 MHz and transmit
on 21.310 MHz.
To change the transmit and receive frequencies, push
[CHANGE] to exchange the main and sub readouts.
DIRECT SHIFT FREQUENCY INPUT
The shift frequency can be entered directly.
q
Push [F-INP].
w
Enter the desired shift frequency with the digit
keys.
- 1 kHz to 1 MHz can be set.
- When you require a minus shift direction, push [ • ] in
advance.
e
Push [SPLIT].
- The shift frequency is input in the sub readout and the
split function is turned ON.
[EXAMPLE]
DUALWATCH FUNCTION
The dualwatch function is convenient for tuning the
transmit frequency while monitoring both frequencies
used for transmitting and receiving.
SPLIT LOCK FUNCTION
Accidentally releasing the [XFC] switch while rotating
the tuning dial changes the receive frequency. To pre-
vent this, use both the split lock and dial lock functions
to change the transmit frequency only. The split lock
function cancels the dial lock function while pushing
[XFC] during split frequency operation.
The dial lock’s effectiveness during split frequency op-
eration can be selected in the set mode for both re-
ceive and transmit frequencies; or only the receive
frequency. (p. 57)
