D Quick split function

In , when you push [
(F-1)
quency operation is turned ON and VFO B is auto-
matically changed according to the plus/minus
pre-programmed shift frequency set in initial set mode
(or equalized when 0 kHz is programmed as the split
shift frequency). This shortens the time needed to
start split frequency operation—great for DX'ing.
The quick split function is ON by default. If desired, it
can be turned OFF in initial set mode (p. 79). In this
case, pushing [

+9.999 MHz.

I Meter selection

The bar meter in the function display acts as an
S-meter for relative signal strength during receiving
and can be selected for one of three types during
transmitting.
