Current Intercept Point; Rf Gain/Squelch Control; Sub Dial Setting; Optional Filter Selection - Icom IC-703 Instruction Manual

SET MODE
This item set the control of current intercept point for
power saving.
Auto: Automatically select "on" or "oFF" depends on
power supply voltage. (default)
on : Power saving mode continuously.
oFF : Priority to intercept point.
*
The [RF/SQL] control can be set as the squelch con-
trol (default), the RF/squelch control (USA version de-
fault) or automatic (acts as squelch in FM/AM modes;
as RF in SSB/CW/RTTY modes). (See p. 24)
*
When this item is set to "rit," pushing [RIT/SUB] turns
the RIT function ON (lights red)—rotating [M-CH]
changes the RIT frequency; when this item is set to
"FrEq," pushing [RIT/SUB] turns the sub dial function
ON (lights green)—rotating [M-CH] changes the op-
erating frequency. Note that in FM and AM modes,
pushing [RIT/SUB] always selects the sub dial func-
tion (lights green), regardless of this setting.
When an optional filter is installed, this selection is
necessary, otherwise the filters cannot be selected.
Selections available are FL-52A, FL-53A, FL-222, FL-
257 and none (default). See p. 49 for usable filters for
each mode and see p. 87 for filter installation.
*
When the peak hold function is ON, the highest acti-
vated segment of the meter remains visible for 0.5
sec.; when OFF, the meter functions normally.
*
When this item is set to ON, pushing [
sec. in the display sets the undisplayed VFO fre-
quency to the displayed VFO frequency plus the split
offset, and activates split operation.
