4 BASIC OPERATIONS While Auto Mode is active, you can select the operating band automatically assigned to each channel. For normal Amateur Radio use, LSB mode should be selected for SSB frequencies lower than 10.1 MHz and USB mode should be selected for SSB frequencies higher than 10.1 MHz. The following list shows an example of the configurations for the auto mode frequencies in the HF or 50 MHz bands. Frequency 1.620 MHz 2.000 MHz 3.500 MHz 3.525 MHz 10.100 MHz 10.150 MHz 14.000 MHz 14.070 MHz 14.112 MHz 18.068 MHz 18.110 MHz 21.000 MHz 21.070 MHz 21.125 MHz 21.150 MHz 24.890 MHz 24.930 MHz 28.000 MHz 28.070 MHz 28.150 MHz 28.200 MHz 29.000 MHz 30.000 MHz 50.000 MHz 50.100 MHz 51.000 MHz 52.000 MHz 60.000 MHz Mode AM CW LSB CW LSB CW USB CW-R FSK USB CW USB CW FSK CW USB CW USB CW FSK CW USB FM-DATA USB CW USB FM USB Preset Frequency Range 30 kHz ≤ freq. < 1.62 MHz 1.62 MHz ≤ freq. < 2.0 MHz 2.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 3.5 MHz 3.5 MHz ≤ freq. < 3.525 MHz 3.525 MHz ≤ freq. < 10.1 MHz 10.1 MHz ≤ freq. < 10.15 MHz 10.15 MHz ≤ freq. < 14.0 MHz 14.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 14.07 MHz 14.07 MHz ≤ freq. < 14.112 MHz 14.112 MHz ≤ freq. < 18.068 MHz 18.068 MHz ≤ freq. < 18.11 MHz 18.11 MHz ≤ freq. < 21.0 MHz 21.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 21.07 MHz 21.07 MHz ≤ freq. < 21.125 MHz 21.125 MHz ≤ freq. < 21.15 MHz 21.15 MHz ≤ freq. < 24.89 MHz 24.89 MHz ≤ freq. < 24.93 MHz 24.93 MHz ≤ freq. < 28.0 MHz 28.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 28.07 MHz 28.07 MHz ≤ freq. < 28.15 MHz 28.15 MHz ≤ freq. < 28.2 MHz 28.2 MHz ≤ freq. < 29.0 MHz 29.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 30.0 MHz 30.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 50.0 MHz 50.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 50.1 MHz 50.1 MHz ≤ freq. < 51.0 MHz 51.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 52.0 MHz 52.0 MHz ≤ freq. < 60.0 MHz TUNING THE FREQUENCY There are another methods to tune the frequency other than the basic methods of rotating the Tuning control or pressing [UP] or [DOWN] (microphone). This section describes how to select the frequency quickly. 5VOJOH

4 TUNING WITH THE TUNING CONTROL 1 Rotate the Tuning (M) or Tuning (S) control to increment or decrement the frequency. • Rotate it clockwise to increase the frequency and rotate it counterclockwise to decrement the frequency. • You can adjust the number of steps per revolution of the Tuning control. If Fine Tuning is inactive in SSB, CW or FSK mode, the Tuning control will use 10 Hz per step. • With the default of 1000 steps, a single rotation of the Tuning control changes the frequency by 10 kHz. 2 Select Group No. 3, "Basic Configurations", from the Menu screen. 3 Access Menu 06, "Tuning Control (Main): Number of Steps per Revolution", or Menu 07, "Tuning Control (Sub): Number of Steps per Revolution". 4 Press [SELECT] (F4) to allow editing of the parameter box. Note: ◆◆No auto mode frequencies above 52.0 MHz are configured. The frequency range of 52.0 MHz ≤ freq < 60.0 MHz is grouped as FM mode. 5 Press [-] (F4) or [+] (F5) to select "250 [Step]", "500 [Step]", or "1000 [Step]". The default is "1000" for both Menus 06 and 07. 6 Press [ ] (F1). 7 Press [MENU] to exit. 4-12 Index Contents
