Changing the TX Deviation Level

In many areas of the world, channel congestion has required that operating channels be
closely spaced. In such operating environments, it often is required that operators use
reduced deviation levels, to reduce the potential for interference to users on adjacent
channels. The FT-252 includes a simple method of accomplishing this:
1. Press the [ SET/ATS ] key to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob or press the [ p ] / [ q ] key to select
Set Mode Item 45:
3. Press the [ SET/ATS ] key momentarily to enable adjust-
ment of this Set Mode Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob or press the [ p ] / [ q ] key to set this Set Mode Item to "
." In this configuration (HALF DEVIATION active), the transmitter's devia-
ROW
tion will be approximately ±2.5 kHz, and the received audio output level will be
increased, for easier listening on the narrow signal.
5. When you have made your selection, press the PTT switch to save the new setting
and exit to normal operation.
The "normal" setting for the deviation (when this Menu Item is set to WIDE) is ±5
kHz.
