5 FUNCTIONS FOR RECEIVE ■ Twin PBT operation (Mode: SSB/CW/RTTY/AM) To reject interference, PBT (Passband Tuning) electronically narrows the IF passband width by shifting the IF frequency slightly outside of the IF filter passband. The IC-9100 uses DSP for the PBT function. Moving both [TWIN-PBT] controls shift the IF passband center frequency both above and below the received frequency. ➥ The LCD graphically shows the passband width and frequency shift. ➥ Hold down [FILTER] for 1 second to display the "FIL" screen (Filter). Current passband width and frequency shift are displayed in the "FIL" screen. ➥ Hold down [PBT-CLR] for 1 second to set the IF frequency to the center position. • The "dot" disappears. The PBT is adjustable in 50 Hz steps in the SSB/CW/ RTTY modes, and 200 Hz in the AM mode. In this time, the shift value changes in 25 Hz steps in the SSB/CW/RTTY modes, and 100 Hz in the AM mode. • T he [TWIN-PBT] controls should normally be set to the center positions when there is no interference. The PBT setting should be cleared. • W hen the PBT is used, the audio tone may change. • T he controls do not function in the FM and DV modes. • W hile rotating the [TWIN-PBT] controls, noise may occur. This comes from the DSP unit and does not indicate an equipment malfunction. • Pushing [PBT-CLR] displays the filter passband width and shift value for 1 seconds on the function display.

FUNCTIONS FOR RECEIVE
Twin PBT operation
(Mode: SSB/CW/RTTY/AM
)
To reject interference, PBT (Passband Tuning) elec-
tronically narrows the IF passband width by shifting the
IF frequency slightly outside of the IF filter passband.
The IC-9100 uses DSP for the PBT function. Moving
both [TWIN-PBT] controls shift the IF passband cen-
ter frequency both above and below the received fre-
quency.
The LCD graphically shows the passband width and
frequency shift.
Hold down [FILTER] for 1 second to display the “FIL”
screen (Filter). Current passband width and fre-
quency shift are displayed in the “FIL” screen.
Hold down [PBT-CLR] for 1 second to set the IF
frequency to the center position.
• The “dot” disappears.
The PBT is adjustable in 50 Hz steps in the SSB/CW/
RTTY modes, and 200 Hz in the AM mode.
In this time, the shift value changes in 25 Hz steps
in the SSB/CW/RTTY modes, and 100 Hz in the AM
mode.
• The [TWIN-PBT] controls should normally be set
to the center positions when there is no interfer-
ence. The PBT setting should be cleared.
• When the PBT is used, the audio tone may
change.
• The controls do not function in the FM and DV
modes.
• While rotating the [TWIN-PBT] controls, noise may
occur. This comes from the DSP unit and does not
indicate an equipment malfunction.
• Pushing [PBT-CLR] displays the filter passband
width and shift value for 1 seconds on the function
display.
