BASIC OPERATION

D About 5 MHz band operation (USA version only)

Operation on the 5 MHz band is allowed on 5 discrete
frequencies and must adhere to the following:
• USB mode
• Maximum of 50 watts ERP
• 2.8 kHz bandwidth
It's your responsibility to set all controls so that trans-
mission in this band meets the stringent conditions
under which amateur operations may use these fre-
quencies.
NOTE: We recommend that you store these fre-
quencies, mode and filter settings into memory
channels for easy recall.
* The FCC specifies center frequencies on the
5 MHz band. However, the IC-7600 displays car-
rier frequency. Therefore, tune the transceiver to
1.5 kHz below the specified FCC channel center
frequency.

D Quick tuning step

The operating frequency can be changed in larger
steps (0.1, 1, 5, 9, 10, 12.5, 20 or 25 kHz selectable)
for quick tuning.
q Push [TS] to turn the quick tuning function ON.
• "Z" appears when the quick tuning function is ON.
w Rotate the main dial to change the frequency in
programmed kHz steps.
e Push [TS] again to turn the quick tuning function
OFF.
• "Z" disappears.
r Rotate the main dial for normal tuning if desired.

D Selecting "kHz" step

q Push [TS] to turn the quick tuning function ON.
• "Z" appears when the quick tuning function ON.
w Push and hold [TS] for 1 sec. to enter quick tuning
step set mode.
• Selected tuning steps for all modes appear.
e Select the desired operating mode.
r Rotate the main dial to select the desired tuning
step.
• Push and hold [DEF] (F-4) for 1 sec. to return to the
default setting, if desired.
t Repeat steps e and r to select quick tuning steps
for other modes, if desired.
y Push [EXIT/SET] to exit the setting display.
NOTE: When entering quick tuning step set mode,
the quick tuning function must be activated first.
