RECEIVING
Set the controls and switches as indicated in Section 6 - 1, then
continue with the following procedure.
(1) POWER ON
(2) VFO A/B SELECTION
(3) MODE SELECTION
(4) AF GAIN ADJUSTMENT
(5) SQUELCH ADJUSTMENT
Push the POWER SWITCH to turn ON the power.
Push the VFO SWITCH to select either VFO A or VFO B.
Push one of the mode switches to select the desired operating mode.
Adjust the AF GAIN for an appropriate audio level from the speaker.
Clockwise rotation increases the level of audio.
Adjust this control for the clearest and most pleasing receive audio.
The control is located on the bottom side of the transceiver, and
may be adjusted without removing the cover. See the photo on page
43 for the exact location.
Set the squelch threshold level. Place the control fully counterclock-
wise to disable the squelch circuit, and rotate clockwise to raise the
threshold level.
AF TONE ADJUSTMENT
No covers need to be removed for the
adjustment.
(1)
Push the AGC SWITCH IN.
(2)
Set the RF GAIN control for a reading of, for example, S9 on
the meter.
(3)
Rotate the SQUELCH CONTROL until the "RECV" indication
on the LCD just disappears. Only those signals greater than an
S9 level will be audible.
(6) TUNING
Refer to Section 6 - 2 - 1, FREQUENCY SELECTION, and rotate
the TUNING CONTROL until a signal is audible. If it is a phone
signal but not intelligible, check that the receiver is set to the correct
sideband (USB or LSB) for the band of operation.
