TX/RX Equalizers

The RX equalizer (RX EQ) allows you to easily adjust the quality of the RX audio.
You can select a preferred sound quality from the different preset equalizer curves available and fine-tune the preset
curves. Likewise, TX audio characteristics can also be adjusted with the TX equalizer (TX EQ). With this, you can correct
the microphone characteristics and also correct it to follow characteristics of your voice.
The volume of each of the 18 bands can be adjusted on the TX Equalizer Adjustment screen and RX Equalizer
Adjustment screen. The screens also allow the preset equalizer curves to be customized and the unique equalizer
curves to be configured.
Typical audio graphic equalizers divide a spectrum by octave. The equalizers on the TS-890S are designed to divide a
spectrum in multiples of 300 Hz. The settings configured on the TX Equalizer Adjustment and RX Equalizer Adjustment
screens are immediately applied to the audio, thus enabling fine adjustments while listening to the audio. Customized
equalizer settings can be stored in or read from the internal memory or a USB flash drive.
