RF/SQL Control
Sets the (outer) control operation.
AF RF/SQL
• Auto: Functions as an RF gain control in the
SSB, CW and RTTY modes.
Functions as a squelch control in the AM,
FM, DV, and DD modes.
• SQL: Functions as a squelch control in all modes.
Does not function as an RF gain control.
• RF+SQL: Functions not only as an RF gain control,
but also as a squelch control in all modes.

FM/DV Center Error
Turns the FM/DV Center Error indication ON or OFF.
The MAIN/SUB band indicator shows the received
signal deviation.
When an off-center signal is received, the indicator
blinks green.

MENU
144M
430M
1200M
Sets the TX delay time on the 144, 430, or 1200 MHz
band.
L If an external equipment's rise time is slower than that
of the IC-9700, a reflected wave is produced and it may
damage the IC-9700 or the external device. To prevent
this, set the appropriate delay time so that no reflected
wave, or timing damage occurs.
LSelect "OFF" for no rise speed.

» SET > Function > SPLIT
MENU
Quick SPLIT
Turns the Quick SPLIT function ON or OFF.
This function automatically turns ON the SPLIT
function, and set the frequency and mode that is not
displayed (VFO A or AFO B), according to the SPLIT
Offset setting.
• OFF: Turns OFF the function.
• ON: Turns ON the function.
SPLIT Offset
Sets the SPLIT offset between -9.999 and +9.999 MHz.
The SPLIT offset is the difference between the receive
and transmit frequencies for the Quick SPLIT function.
