LMO DIAL KNOB: This kn ob is used
to
set
the
Transmitter
for
the desired operating
fre-
quency
of the selected band when the internal
LMO
is
used.
'
MODE: This switch p ermits
the
operator
to
select the desired mode of
operation,
such as
LSB, USB, CW and TUNE.
FUNCTION: This switch is set f or the desired
Transmitter
function,
such as
OFF, STBY, TRCV,

METER:
Setting
this
switch t

its various
positions
gives the
operator

DRIVER:
This control is adjusted for maximum
meter
indication
(REL PWR).
It tun es
the
driver stage for maximum output.

the Trans-
mitter for maximum output
by r-esonating the
final tank.

FINAL LOAD: This control is adjus ted for
maximum meter indication (REL PWR). It tun es
the Transmitter
for maximum output by
matching
the output impedance
to the
antenna.
FREQ. CONTROL: This switch permits
the
se-
lection of either
the
internal LMO or
the
ex-
ternal
LMO in the SB-301 Receiver.
In the
