RF gain control
NB1 : For pulse type noise,
such as generated by
automotive ignition
systems.
NB2 : Noise blanker 2 is
used for long duration
pulse noise, like the
"woodpecker".
This control should be all the
way to the right.
TONE control
Turn the control to increase
or decrease the tone.
SLOPE TUNE control
M.CH/VFO CH control
This control is used to
change the frequency in 10
kHz steps during VFO
operations.
This control is also used to
select the desired memory
channel during Memory
Channel Operation.

LINEAR AMP switch
Activates the relay for the
linear amplifier control. If the
linear amplifier relay operates
slowly, you may need to
make a retry. Check the
TNC parameter setting.

Turn on the DC power supply and then turn the transceiver's power
switch ON.
A frequency is shown in the display.
Select LSB or USB with the MODE key.
Enter the desired frequency.
Before transmitting check the frequency for activity so that you do

output
Enter a transmit command from the communication terminal (generally, from the keyboard), and adjust the MIC gain
control so that the meter deflection is within the ALC zone.
Notes
1. Follow the instructions contained in your terminal units operating manual for the correct settings before you start transmitting.
2. If the output of the terminal unit causes the ALC meter to register above the recommended limits even with the MIC
gain control turned all the way down you should reduce the output of the terminal unit. Excessive signal levels can
cause distortion! If the terminal unit output level is fixed you should add a potentiometer between the transceiver and
the terminal unit. (Refer to Section 6-4-4.)
