Split Frequency Operation

DX operators frequently have need for split frequency
operation, whereby a DX-pedition station may trans-
mit on one frequency while listening over a segment
of the same band. The FT-920 provides several
means of efficient split frequency operations for DX
operation and even certain satellite operating situa-

TX C ifier Operation

For splits of up to ±9.99 kHz, the TX Clarifier pro-
vides a simple means of split operation.
Example:
DX1DX is transmitting on 14.024.0 MHz, listening
"Up 5" kHz:
 With the Clarifier set to zero offset, tune in
DX1DX on 14.024.00 MHz using the Main VFO
Tuning Dial.
‚ Press the TX C
VFO Tuning Dial so as to set up a Clarifier off-
set of -5.00 kHz.
ƒ Push the RX C
listening in the area of 14.029.0 MHz. You may
hear a number of stations calling, and you may
hear this station currently being worked by
DX1DX.
„ If you can hear the station being worked by
DX1DX, press the S
VFO-B Tuning Dial so as to align the pitch of
the station being worked by DX1DX with the
pitch of your radio's S
place you exactly on the frequency currently
being received by DX1DX.
… Now press the RX C
the Receive Clarifier. You will now be back on
14.024.00 MHz, listening for DX1DX to send
"QRZ?" When you transmit, you will be approxi-
mately on 14.029 MHz, depending on how far
you adjusted the offset so as to zero in on the
station being worked by DX1DX.
† If you don't work DX1DX after one or two calls,
again press the RX C
for the station being worked by DX1DX; then
