5-4. DUAL VFO OPERATION
The TS-940S has two VFO's, A and B. which are con-
trolled by the microprocessor. The Main Display and Sub-
display provide complete operating information for these
VFO's. The active VFO is shown in red on the Main dis-
play, and on the Sub-display (See Section 7-3).
To change the active VFO press the A/B switch.
5-5. T -F SET SWITCH
To operate SPLIT frequency (different transmit and receive
frequency):
1 . Enter the desired receive frequency into the Active
VFO.
2.
Press the SPLIT key. The SPLIT indicator will light.
3.
Press the T-F SET switch and hold. The transceiver will
switch to the idle VFO so that you can select the trans-
mit frequency.
4. Release the T-F SET switch to return to the receive fre-
quency.

5-6. METER
Provides seven different functions, depending on the
METER switch setting. In receive the meter is automati-
cally an S-meter, and shows the received signal strength
on a scale of 0 to 60 dB over S9. In transmit, the meter
function depends on the position of the METER switch.
This is an average responding meter, NOT a peak-reading
meter.
e@) METER switch<!)
0 COMP - Indicates compression level during speech
processor operations.
Do not exceed 1 0 dB of
compression.
0
ALC (Automatic Level Control) - Indicates internal
ALC voltage, or the ALC voltage fed back from a linear
amplifier connected to this transceiver.
0 POWER:
Indicates transmitter RF output power.
0 SWR:
Indicates voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR).
0 IC:
Indicates the power transistor collector current (IC).
The IC meter is calibrated at the values normally en-
countered at full power, its indication may not be accur-
ate at lower power settings.
o
VC:
Indicates the power transistor collector voltage (VC).
