CARRIER MODE

NORMAL-MODULATED


Displays the carrier mode of operation as follows:

Normal-Modulated

The carrier mode in normally in this Modulated position.

Center-CW

Generates a carrier at the current modulator frequency. This can be used to
measure the output frequency.

Offset-CW

Generates a single, upper, side-band-suppressed carrier signal. The upper side-
band is at one-quarter of the symbol rate from the carrier. When inverted
spectrum is selected, this generates a single, lower, side-band-suppressed
carrier.

Dual-CW

Generates a dual side-band suppressed carrier signal. Side-bands are at one-half
of the symbol rate from the carrier. This is used to check the channel balance and
carrier null.
