2.4.6. Cluster Above Tuning Knob
The six buttons in this group
control
JUPITER's BAND, MODE, VFO A and
МЕО В functions.
MODE
steps
sequentially
through
JUPITER's
five demodulation
modes:
USB, LSB, CW, ЕМ, & АМ. Initially,
JUPITER sets the MODE to USB on 10
through 20 meters, to CW on 30 meters,
and to LSB on 40 through 160 meters.
These
settings
are
conventional
and
popular
on
those
bands,
but
stored
operator
settings
can
override
them.
JUPITER returns to the last mode used
on a given band.
BAND
steps
sequentially
through
JUPITER's
9
amateur
radio
band
allocations: 28, 24, 21, 18, 14, 10.1,
7.0, 3.5, & 1.8 Megahertz.
The
receiver coverage is continuous from 0.1
to 30 Megahertz with automatic band
changing.
The
SPLIT
key
switches
between
transceiving on the VFO A frequency
(normal state) and receiving on the VFO
А frequency but transmitting on the VFO
B frequency (SPLIT
state) SPLIT
is
normally off. See paragraph 2.4.11.
The REV
(reverse) key works
while
SPLIT operation is active. While you
push and hold the REV key, JUPITER
tunes and receives on the frequency and
mode from VFO B (the transmit VFO).
Though
REV
defaults
to
off,
it is
convenient
іп
particular
operating
situations.
See paragraph 2.4.12 below
for an example of REV use.
To switch the active VFO, tap the A/B
button above the tuning knob.
