DISPLAY MAPPING TO SWITCHES 1-4
Functions shown on the display are often mapped
to one or more of the pushbutton switches. This
provides access to up to 8 functions, each with a
single switch press: 4 via a tap, and 4 via a hold.
In the example below, T1 - T4 correspond to taps

ATTENUATOR: When the attenuator is set to -10
dB, a resistor icon appears on line 2 (assuming
MENU:DISP MODE is set to Operate):
1 4 Ø Ø Ø . Ø Ø C + . Ø Ø
S Ø
The -30 dB setting uses a thicker resistor icon. In
the 0 dB setting, the icon character is blank.
S-METER: The S-meter shows S0-S9 (6 dB/unit),
then: "+" = S9+10, … = S9+20,
RIT: When RIT is on, an R appears to the right of
the RIT/XIT offset on line 1. The VFO knob then
controls the RIT offset. The offset can be zeroed
using a menu function (see MENU:RIT CLEAR). RIT
is used to change your receive frequency without
affecting your transmit frequency – useful for
fine-tuning stations after you call CQ.

who specify "UP 2" (etc.) when they call CQ.
