➥ While in the Set mode/Quick Set mode, rotate to
select the Set mode item. (p. 25)
➥ This control can be set as the memory channel
control or the RIT control.
• The RIT function should be turned ON first to activate
this control as the RIT control.
- " " appears when the RIT function is ON.
• The RIT control indicator (!9 ) lights orange when this
control is activated as the RIT control.
When [M-CH] acts as the M-CH control:
Rotate to select a memory channel (p. 21).
Channel decreases
When [M-CH] acts as an RIT control:
Rotate to shift the receive frequency.
• Rotate the control clockwise to increase the frequen-
cy, or rotate the control counterclockwise to decrease
the frequency.
• The frequency shift range is ±9.999 kHz in 1 Hz steps
or ±9.99 kHz in 10 Hz steps, depending on the 1 Hz
or 10 Hz tuning steps settings.
Frequency decreases
4 What is the RIT function?
The RIT (Receiver Incremental Tuning) shifts the re-
ceive frequency without shifting the transmit frequency.
This is useful for fine tuning stations calling you off
frequency, or when you prefer to listen to slightly dif-
ferent sounding audio characteristics.

The preamp amplifies signals in the receiver front
end (input) circuit to improve the sensitivity. Turn ON
the preamp when receiving weak signals.
4 What is the attenuator?
The attenuator prevents a strong undesired signal
near the desired frequency or near your location,
such as from a broadcast station, from causing dis-
tortion or spurious signals.
@4 MAIN DIAL [DIAL]
Changes the displayed frequency and selects values for
selected Set mode/Quick Set mode items.
