range and the frequency will need to be adjusted.
Center Frequency Adjust
CENTER FREQ:
550.0 MHZ
This where the center frequency of the front-end filter is set. The front-end filter is 35MHz wide so frequencies
17.5MHz above and 17.5MHz below the center frequency will be the operating range of the RX-8. MRX receivers
will need to operate within the set 35MHz window. If the frequencies aren't within this window the RF
performance will suffer. This menu is only available in the A receiver.
Frequency Scan
PRESS
540.0 TO 570.0
An RF scan is initiated from this menu. After the scan is complete a graphical display of the RF that is present will
be shown and the RX-8 will suggest clear frequencies. The frequency can be accepted by pressing the INC key.
Pressing the DEC key will skip the first chosen frequency and the RX-8 will suggest another frequency. Please note
the RX-8 can scan 30 MHz at a time.
Scanning is only available from the A receiver.
