d. It is possible to save and load up to three of your
favourite receiver set-ups, one for casual listening, one
for serious DXing, one for data communication or whatever
you choose. Each mode can have your own choice of
filter bandwidth, pass band offset, BFO setting and AGC
speed, along with global settings of the tone controls,
auto / manual synchronous AM, auto / manual RF
attenuator and line output levels. All these settings can be
held in one of the SETUP MEMORIES, A, B or C. Using
the setups can avoid having to recall many different menus,
and provides a useful short cut to changing listening
modes.
The setup memories are accessed through the SETUP
menu by turning the spin-wheel
memory (A, B or C) is selected along with the required
function:- to setup the receiver with the settings
held in the memory or
settings into the memory. Press the
load or save the setup.
e. The AR7030 has two VFOs, A and B - (Active and
Background). Each VFO holds settings of volume, tone,
receive frequency, reception mode, filter bandwidth, PBS,
BFO, RF attenuator, IF gain, AGC speed, squelch, scan
delay time and scan mode. The contents of the VFOs
can be exchanged using the
VFO can be tuned.

Note: The background VFO data will be lost when power
to the receiver is switched off.
f. The 100 frequency memories store receiver
frequency, reception mode, filter bandwidth, PBS offset
and squelch level. BFO frequency is stored instead of
squelch level for in CW and DATA modes. Once recalled,
(into the active VFO) it is possible to tune away from the
memory data or change mode at will - for this reason
there is little point in storing the same frequency with
different modes in different memories, even when DXing
a broadcast where AM, USB, LSB or Snc modes might
be needed.
Memory contents are not modified by changing any
receiver settings - they will only alter if the
is pressed. Any previous contents are then overwritten.
g. The receiver's display is split into several different
areas. The current FREQUENCY and MODE are always
visible, but other information varies depending upon the
operating condition and the menus selected. This
illustration may be useful for reference.
