SCOPE FUNCTIONS 7 Switching the Scope Display Mode 1 Display the bandscope screen. 2 Press F2 [S.MODE]. • If F2 [S.MODE] is not displayed, press F1 [MORE] to display F2 [S.MODE]. Pressing F2 [S.MODE] each time switches the selection to "Auto Scroll Mode", "Fixed Mode" and "Center Mode" in sequence. Auto Scroll Mode (AUTO SCROLL MODE) Moves the marker of the tuning frequency to within the scope range. If the lower or upper limit of the display range is exceeded, the scope range is automatically scrolled by half a screen. Fixed Mode (FIXED MODE) Moves the marker of the tuning frequency to within the scope range preconfigured for each amateur band. Up to 3 scope ranges can be preconfigured for one amateur band. Center Mode (CENTER MODE) The marker of the tuning frequency is normally fixed at the center. Auto Scroll Mode Switching the Display Frequency Span When the bandscope is displayed in the Auto Scroll mode or Center mode, the display frequency span (the width between the lower and upper frequency limits in the bandscope screen) can be adjusted. Press F3 [SPAN]. • If F3 [SPAN] is not displayed, press F [MORE] to display F3 [SPAN]. Pressing F3[SPAN] each time switches the frequency span. Setting Value 5kHz/ 10kHz/ 20kHz/ 30kHz/ 50kHz/ 100kHz/ 200kHz/ 500kHz • The display frequency span can be configured separately for audio mode (SSB/AM/FM (including DATA mode)) and nonaudio mode (CW/FSK/PSK). • The default settings of the audio mode and non-audio mode are "50Hz (± 25Hz)" and "10kHz (± 5Hz)" respectively. • Pressing and holding F3[SPAN] each time switches the options in the reverse sequence. • The selected display frequency span is displayed in the toolbar of the bandscope screen as "SPAN 50kHz", for example. Marker Shift This function shifts the scope range in the auto scroll mode operation so that the marker is displayed at an easy to observe position. ... Fixed Mode Shifting the Marker Press F4 [SHIFT]. • If F4 [SHIFT] is not displayed, press F [MORE] to display F4 [SHIFT]. The marker shifts close to the preset shift position (default value is center). ● Depending on the relationship between the RX frequency and the span, deviation of 1 grid to the left or right may occurred in the shift operation. Changing the Shift Position of Marker Shift Center Mode 1 Press and hold F4 [SHIFT]. • If F4 [SHIFT] is not displayed, press F [MORE] to display F4 [SHIFT]. The transceiver enters the shift position configuration mode. The value indicating the position of the selected vertical grid line is displayed. 2 Move the shift position to the desired position using the [MULTI/CH] control. • Pressing and holding F4 [SHIFT] moves the shift position to the center. 3 Press F4 [SHIFT]. The transceiver exits the shift position configuration mode. ● When observing the condition of the frequency calling the DX station or the condition in the RX passband during digital communication such as FT8, change the shift position of the marker to display the RX frequency marker at the edge. Doing so widens the width for displaying the signal compared to when the marker is near the center. 7-3

to display
F2 [S.MODE]
.
Pressing
F2 [S.MODE]
each time switches the selection to
“Auto Scroll Mode”, “Fixed Mode” and “Center Mode” in
sequence.
Auto Scroll Mode (AUTO SCROLL MODE)
Moves the marker of the tuning frequency to within the scope
range. If the lower or upper limit of the display range is
exceeded, the scope range is automatically scrolled by half a
screen.
Fixed Mode (FIXED MODE)
Moves the marker of the tuning frequency to within the scope
range preconfigured for each amateur band. Up to 3 scope
ranges can be preconfigured for one amateur band.
Center Mode (CENTER MODE)
The marker of the tuning frequency is normally fixed at the
center.
Auto Scroll Mode
Fixed Mode
Center Mode
Switching the Display Frequency Span
When the bandscope is displayed in the Auto Scroll mode or
Center mode, the display frequency span (the width between the
lower and upper frequency limits in the bandscope screen) can be
adjusted.
Press F3 [SPAN].
If
F3 [SPAN]
is not displayed, press
F [MORE]
to display
F3
[SPAN]
.
Pressing
F3[SPAN]
each time switches the frequency span.
Setting Value
5kHz/ 10kHz/ 20kHz/ 30kHz/ 50kHz/ 100kHz/
200kHz/ 500kHz
The display frequency span can be configured separately for
audio mode (SSB/AM/FM (including DATA mode)) and non-
audio mode (CW/FSK/PSK).
The default settings of the audio mode and non-audio mode
are “50Hz (± 25Hz)” and “10kHz (± 5Hz)” respectively.
Pressing and holding
F3[SPAN]
each time switches the
options in the reverse sequence.
The selected display frequency span is displayed in the
toolbar of the bandscope screen as “SPAN 50kHz”, for
example.
Marker Shift
This function shifts the scope range in the auto scroll mode
operation so that the marker is displayed at an easy to observe
position.
Shifting the Marker
Press F4 [SHIFT].
If
F4 [SHIFT]
is not displayed, press
F [MORE]
to display
F4 [SHIFT]
.
The marker shifts close to the preset shift position (default value
is center).
Depending on the relationship between the RX
frequency and the span, deviation of 1 grid to the left or
right may occurred in the shift operation.
Changing the Shift Position of Marker Shift
1
Press and hold F4 [SHIFT].
If
F4 [SHIFT]
is not displayed, press
F [MORE]
to display
F4 [SHIFT]
.
The transceiver enters the shift position configuration mode.
The value indicating the position of the selected vertical grid
line is displayed.
2
Move the shift position to the desired position using
the [MULTI/CH] control.
Pressing and holding
F4 [SHIFT]
moves the shift position to
the center.
3
Press F4 [SHIFT].
The transceiver exits the shift position configuration mode.
When observing the condition of the frequency calling
the DX station or the condition in the RX passband during
digital communication such as FT8, change the shift
position of the marker to display the RX frequency
marker at the edge. Doing so widens the width for
displaying the signal compared to when the marker is
near the center.
