To operate split;
(1) Tune the displayed VFO to the frequen-
cy
you
want
to transmit
on.
(2) Press the VFO AB key once to select the
alternate VFO, and set this one to the
receiving frequency.
(3) Press SPLIT ('SPLIT' will appear on the
display,
and whenever the transmitter
is keyed, frequency will shift to that
set in step (1).
Note:
make certain that the emission mode
of both
VFOs
is the same
(unless
you want
to operate cross-mode).
You can press the TRACK key at any time to
cause the two VFOs to be linked, so that tun-
ing one will cause the other to tune by the
same amount (whether or not split operation is
activated!).
The green TRACK
indicator be-
neath the display will glow while this func-
tion is active.
Press TRACK again to cancel.
To reverse your transmit and receive frequen-
cies while working split, just press VFO AB.
To display the offset between your transmit
and receive frequencies, press OFFSET.
The
display will now indicate 'OFFSET', and show
the difference frequency between the VFOs (up
to 9.99999 MHz, with a leading '-" sign if the
transmit
frequency
is lower than the receiving
frequency).
If the track function is not
active,
the effect of tuning on the offset
will be displayed by the change in difference
frequency.
The next section explains how to
store offset frequencies in memory.
To return
to operating frequency display, press OFFSET
again.
To cancel split,
track, offset or clarifier
operation (or any combination of these), press
either the keys of the same name, or press the
AC key twice, which cancels all of them and
leaves you back on the VFO, simplex.

Offset Frequency Memory
As a further convenience for split frequency
operation, up to four offset frequencies may
be stored in special memories:
one each for
HF, 6m, 2m and 70cm bands (the VHF and UHF
bands require the optional band modules).
Both VFOs are required for this feature.
To store an offset frequency;
(1) Perform steps (1) - (3) to set up split
operation.
(2) Press OFFSET to display the ofíset.
(3)
Press
VFO-M
to store
the offset.
EXAMPLE:
Store
+600 kHz
offset
for 2m
(re-
quires
optional
2m
Band
Module).
(1) Starting on VFO A, tune to 146.000 MHz
for whatever frequency you intend to
transmit on).
(2) Press the VFO AB key to switch to VFO
B, and tune to 145.400 MHz (or whatever
frequency you intend to receive on).
(3)
Press
SPLIT
and
then
OFFSET.
Check
that the display
now
shows 0.6000 MHz.
(4)
Press
VFO-M
to store
this offset.
(5) Press AC to return to simplex operation.
To recall a stored offset frequency memory,
press OFFSET and then SPLIT.
The unselected
VFO is automatically reset to the proper off-
set frequency.
For example,
if the above
steps have been performed and you have since
retuned VFO A to 145.000 MHz, just press
OFFSET
and then SPLIT.
Now your transmit fre-
quency
will
be
145.600
MHz,
which
will
be
found in VFO B (regardiess of where it may
have been
tuned
previously).
