METER
The meter for the main band displays the signal as an
S-meter while receiving and as the selected meter while
transmitting. The meter for the sub band always displays
the readout of the S-meter. The meter type for the main
band displayed on the main screen can be changed.

CHANGING THE METER TYPE
You can select the meter display pattern, showing the
main band status, from a digital pattern or two analog
patterns.

Note:
You can touch the meter display area while an analog or digital
meter is displayed to switch the meter type.
Touching the screen each time switches the meter in the following
sequence: “Digital” → “Analog (White)” → “Analog (Black)”→ ...
Touching the meter display area while a mini digital meter is
displayed will not switch the meter display pattern.

Parameters vary according to the meter type:
For Type 1 (Digital Meter)
SWR > Id > COMP > Vd > TEMP > SWR
For Type 1 (Digital Meter) and displayed as the compressed
mode
Po > SWR > Id > COMP > ALC > Vd > TEMP
For Type 2 or Type 3 (Analog Meter)
P0 > SWR > Id > COMP > ALC > VD
P0
Indicates the transmit power. (Indicates the peak
transmit power value.)
SWR
Indicates the Standing Wave Ratio showing the
antenna impedance matching state.
COMP
Displays the amount of compression of the transmit
signal by the speech processor.
ALC
Indicates the voltage in the Automatic Level Control
circuit.
Id
Indicates the drain current in the final FET circuit.
Vd
Indicates the drain voltage in the final FET circuit.
TEMP
Indicates the temperature of the internal circuit.
