■ Frequency calibration
A very accurate frequency counter is required to cali-
brate the frequency of the transceiver. However, a
rough check may be performed by receiving radio sta-
tion WWV, WWVH, or other standard frequency sig-
nals.
CAUTION: The IC-7410 has been thoroughly ad-
justed and tested at the factory before being
shipped. You should not have to re-calibrate it.
q Push [SSB] once or twice to select the USB mode.
w Push [PBT-CLR] for 1 second to clear the PBT set-
tings and make sure that the RIT/∂TX function is
turned OFF.
e Set the frequency to the standard frequency station
minus 1 kHz.
• When receiving WWV or WWVH (at 15.000.00 MHz) as
a standard frequency, set the operating frequency for
14.999.00 MHz.
• Other standard frequencies can also be used.
r Hold down [MENU] for 1 second to enter the Set
mode.
t Push [Y](F-1) or [Z](F-2) to select "Calibration
Marker."
y Rotate [DIAL] to turn ON the calibration marker.
• A sidetone may be heard.
u Push [Z](F-2) to select "REF Adjust."
i Rotate [DIAL] to adjust for a zero beat with the re-
ceived standard signal.
• Zero beat means that two signals are exactly the same
frequency, resulting in a single tone being heard.
o Push [Y](F-1) to select "Calibration Marker."
!0 Rotate [DIAL] to turn OFF the calibration marker.
!1 Push [MENU] to save, and exit the Set mode.
■ About protection displays
The IC-7410 2-step protection function monitors the
power amplifier temperature and activates when the
temperature becomes extremely high.
• Reduced power transmission
Halves the transmit output power.
"LMT" appears above the TX icon "
• Transmission inhibit
Deactivates the transmitter.
Even if you push [PTT] or [TRANSMIT], the TX indica-
tor does not light.
When the protector is activated, operate in only the
stand-by or receive mode until the power amplifier
cools down.
NOTE: DO NOT turn OFF the transceiver power
when the protector is ON, or the cooling fan will not
function, and delay cooling the transceiver.
