q PASSBAND TUNING CONTROLS [TWIN PBT]
Adjust the receiver's DSP filter passband width.
(p. 5-4)
• The limit of the variable range depends on the passband
width and operating mode. The limit of the variable range
is half of the passband width, and PBT is adjustable in
200 Hz (AM) or 50 Hz (other modes) steps.
• Rotating both [TWIN PBT] controls (PBT1 and PBT2) to
the same position shifts the IF higher or lower.
What is the PBT control?
✓
Generally, the PBT electronically narrows the IF pass-
band width to reject interference. This transceiver uses
the DSP circuit for the PBT function.

• When entering the noise blanker Set mode, the noise
blanker function is automatically turned ON.
• In the noise blanker Set mode, rotate [M-CH] (u) to
select the item, then rotate [DIAL] to set.
What is the noise blanker?
✓
The noise blanker reduces pulse-type noise such as
that generated by automobile ignition systems. This
function is not effective against non pulse-type noise.

• In the noise reduction Set mode, rotate [DIAL] to set.
What is the Noise Reduction function?
✓
The Noise Reduction (NR) function removes random
noise from the receiver passband. The level is adjust-
able to allow maximum clarity without harming the
intelligibility of the desired signal. Noise Reduction
should generally not be used in the digital modes.
