IF 70.7 MHz – it´s the classical type of manual notch filtering using a
Xtal bridge – the IF-NOTCH. The other one is part of the DSP – it´s an
Automatic Notch Filter (ANF) – here called the DSP NOTCH.
DSP NOTCH and IF-NOTCH may be engaged simultaneously.
Notch filtering is not available in AM and FM. In case NOTCH filtering is active
and modes are changed to AM/FM both NOTCHs will cease operation.
After power on both NOTCH filters are off (Default value).
The IF-NOTCH will be activated by pushing the control IF-
NOTCH which is located as depicted. On the display it is
outlined as NOTCH 2.
