The TUNING CONTROL tension may be adjusted to suit the
operator's preference. The screw adjustment is located on the bot-
tom side of the transceiver cabinet below the TUNING CONTROL.
The method for adjustment is as follows:
(1)
Rotate the TUNING CONTROL continuously and smoothly in
one direction.
(2) Adjust the brake adjustment screw either clockwise for tighter
tension, or counterclockwise for looser tension as desired.
It is unnecessary to remove the bottom cover for the
brake adjustment.
Simply push any one of the four MODE SWITCHES to select an
operating mode.
The USB mode is automatically selected on the 10MHz band and
above, and the LSB mode is automatically selected on the 7MHz
band and below. The mode changes alternately between USB and
LSB each time the SSB button is pushed.
See CW OPERATION.
See AM OPERATION.
See FM OPERATION.
The IC-735 contains two VFOs for both receiving and transmitting.
The VFOs are called VFO A and VFO B, and they may be selected
alternately by pushing the VFO SWITCH when in the VFO mode.
This dual VFO system provides a great deal of operating flexibility,
therefore read this section carefully and try the example for yourself
in order to become proficient at using this important feature.
(1)
When VFO A is selected, "VFO A" appears on the LCD and
both transmit and receive frequencies are as indicated on the
frequency display. This frequency and the mode are stored in
memory "A".
(2)
When VFO B is selected, "VFO B" appears on the LCD and
both transmit and receive frequencies are as indicated on the
frequency display. This frequency and the mode are stored in
memory "B".
Switching from one VFO to the other VFO does not clear the first
VFO. The VFO's memory retains the frequency and operating
mode.
