FUNCTIONS FOR RECEIVE
■Simple band scope
This DSP-based simple band scope allows you to dis-
play conditions on the selected band, as well as rela-
tive strength of signals. The IC-7000 has two modes
for the spectrum indication—one is fix mode, and an-
other one is center mode.
➥
Select G
-
1 (Scope).
NOTE: The IC-7000’s simple band scope can mon-
itor the displayed frequency during sweeping. Both
of the receving and sweeping functions use the
same receive circuit which switch alternatively es-
pecially at high speed. Thus this switching sound
during may be irritating to listen to. If so, set the de-
sired monitoring sound, “FAST Sweep Sound,”
or change the fast sweep setting, “FAST
Sweep,” in the scope set mode (p. 73).

DFix mode
Displays signals within the specified frequency range.
The selected band conditions can be observed at a
glance when using this mode.
NOTE: If there is a lot of signal noise, turn the pre-
amp OFF and the attenuator ON (p. 74) to reduce
the input level and improve the readability of the
scope.

“
O” and readout frequency indicator appear when the
fix mode is selected.
rPush [F-4 SPD] momentarily to select the sweep
speed.
•
“
≈” or “≈≈” appears when Slow speed or Fast speed is
selected, respectively.
tPush [F-1 SPN] one or more times to select the
desired steps.
•
±10, 25, 50, 100 and 250 kHz are available.
•
Push and hold
[F-1 SPN] for 1 sec. to select the ±10
kHz step.
•
“<” or “>” indicates when the displayed frequency is out
of range. The scope center position can be set to the
displayed frequency by pushing and holding
[F-3

] for 1 sec.
•
The simple band scope operates in the peak level hold
mode. Peak levels are displayed in the background of
the current spectrum in a different color until the receive
frequency changes. This can be cleared by pushing
and holding
[F-2 HLD] for 1 sec., or deactivated in the
scope set mo
de. (p. 73)
yPush [F-2 HLD] to freeze the current spectrum dis-
play.
• “
