Public address

An external 8 ohms, 3 Watt speaker must be connected to the PA jack
located on the rear panel when the transceiver is used as a public
address system. The speaker should be directed away from the
microphone to prevent acoustic feedback. Physical separation or
isolation of the microphone and speaker is important when operating
the PA at high output levels.

INTRODUCTION
This section explains the basic operating procedures for the DX
2517 amateur base station transceiver.
CONTROL & CONNECTIONS:
1. POWER ON/OFF CONTROL: Push ON to apply power to
the unit.
2. RF/SWR METER: This meter operates during transmit only. It
reads power output or SWR.
3. SWR/CAL SWITCH: This switch is used with the
"CALIBRATE" pot (No.12) to measure your SWR. Simply put
this switch in the "CAL" position. Then, transmit in AM, FM or
CW while adjusting the "CALBRATE" pot until the needle on the
left meter goes to the small red "Notch" on the SWR scale (You
may need to be at maximum power to reach the "SET" mark).
Now, while still transmitting, put this switch up to the "SWR"
