components allow the MFJ-1278B to operate efficiently in its various modes of operation.
These modes of operation include VHF and HF Packet, PACTOR, AMTOR, VHF RTTY,
HF RTTY, VHF ASCII, HF ASCII, CW, Modulated CW, CW Memory Keyer, 16 gray level
FAX (including Weather FAX), color SSTV and monitoring of NAVTEX.
All modem components have been individually calibrated for each mode of operation. The
MFJ-1278B has been factory calibrated and does not require re-calibration when operating
any the operational modes.
