Quick Split Function - Icom IC-7000 Instruction Manual

■ Quick split function

When you find a DX station, an important considera-
tion is how to set the split frequency.
When you push and hold [F-1 S S P P L L ] (M M - - 1 1 ) for 1 sec., split
frequency operation is turned ON, the undisplayed VFO is
automatically changed according to the plus/minus shift fre-
quency programmed in the miscellaneous (others) set
mode (p. 129) or equalized with the displayed VFO when
0.000 MHz (default) is programmed as the split offset fre-
quency.
This shortens the time needed to start split frequency
operation.
Quick split operation is turned ON by default but can be
turned OFF in the miscellaneous (others) set mode (p. 129).
q Suppose you are operating at 21.290 MHz (USB)
in VFO A.
w Push and hold [F-1 S S P P L L ] (M M - - 1 1 ) for 1 sec.
• Split frequency operation is turned ON.
• The VFO A and VFO B are equalized.
PRACTICAL EXAMPLE
When you are searching for DX stations and you
suspect that a DX station may say "up 'X' kHz" for
their receive frequency:
OPERATION 1
q Push and hold [F-1 S S P P L L ] (M M - - 1 1 ) for 1 sec. to
standby for split operation.
w If the DX station's operator says "up 10 kHz."
• Push [F-INP/ENT], [1], [0] then [F-1 S S P P L L ] (M M - - 1 1 ).
• Or, rotate the tuning dial.
OPERATION 2
If the DX station's operator says "down 5 kHz" be-
fore you enter standby for split operation:
➥ Push [F-INP/ENT], [•], [5] then [F-1 S S P P L L ] (M M - - 1 1 ).
• The split function is turned ON and "5 kHz down" fre-
quency is entered in the sub readout.
[AF]
Menu selection (Example: M-1)
• Push [MENU/GRP] for 1 sec. once or twice to select
the menu group M M . Selection from: M M , S S or G G (Graphic)
• Push [MENU/GRP] momentarily one or more times to
select the menu M M - - 1 1 . Selection from: M M - - 1 1 , M M - - 2 2 or M M - - 3 3
e While pushing and holding [F-4 X X F F C C ] (M M - - 1 1 ), rotate
[DIAL] to set the frequency offset between trans-
mit and receive.
• [XFC] on the HM-151 can also be used.
• The transmit frequency can be monitored while pushing
