    PECTRUM COPE This page displays the Spectrum Scope which is conve- nient for monitoring band activity. The entire screen will become the spectrum display, and you can see both strong and weak signals clearly and eas- ily on the Main (VFO-A) band. Furthermore, the LBWS function allow you to realize very high-speed signal detection over a limited band seg- ment.
  • Page 23 XPLANATION OF THE [ F3 ( ATT )] Key ( Attenuator ) By pressing this key, the display attenuation can be switched as shown below. The noise level on the band will vary according to conditions, your antenna, the time of day, etc.; please select the appropriate value for current conditions.
  • Page 24 PECTRUM COPE SING THE It is possible to see both strong and weak signals clearly and easily on the Main (VFO-A) band. Also, the LBWS (Limited Band Width Sweep) mode lets you perform a high-speed, high-resolution sweep of a limited band segment. 1.

  • Page 26: Using The Lbws (Limited Band Width Sweep) Function

    PECTRUM COPE LBWS ( L SING THE LBWS (Limited Band Width Sweep) is a function that sweeps a limited segment of the Spectrum Scope span without changing the span (bandwidth). As the sweep segment becomes narrower, the speed becomes faster, and the accuracy and resolution become enhanced.

  • Page 27: Using The Fix (Fixed) Mode

    This feature is convenient when you want to monitor an entire amateur band. The starting point, located at the left edge of the screen, can be set via the Menu. Even if the screen span (bandwidth) is changed, the start frequency will not be changed. By watching the screen, you can move your operation to frequencies where interesting activity appears on the display.
  • Page 28 UDIO COPE AND BOUT THE It is possible to show both the Audio Scope and the Os- cilloscope displays simultaneously. With the Audio Scope, the horizontal line represents fre- quency, and you can use this function check the frequency response within the RX or TX bandwidth. In the Oscillo- scope mode, the horizontal line represents time, and you can check the RX signal waveform within the RX band- width, as well as the TX wave form.
  • Page 29 UDIO The Audio Scope is particularly useful when making adjustments to the transmitter, especially when setting up the Speech Processor as well as the Parametric Microphone Equalizer. On receive, you can observe the signal characteristics and quality of the incoming signal, as well. In the case of the Waterfall display, this can be used for precise frequency alignment of incoming signals to correspond with filters used in your computer’s sound card or modem.
  • Page 30 UDIO COPE AND Both TX and RX waveforms can be observed, allowing optimal adjustments of setup options or filter settings, on Voice, CW, and Digital modes. 1. Press the [ F6 ( LEVEL )] key to set the level as appro- priate for the signal strength being monitored.
