4 BASIC OPERATIONS STORING THE ANTENNA NAME You can store an antenna name for the connected antenna. If multiple antennas are used, band by band, displaying the antenna name allows you to distinguish which antenna you want to select.

ANT1 to ANT4, RX ANT, and DRV settings will automatically be saved in the antenna band memory. If you select the same band next time, the same antenna will automatically be selected. The antenna band memory is set independently for the sub band and the main band. 1 Press [ANT] (F) to select the antenna. Each key press cycles the operating mode through the following sequence. ANT1 > ANT2 > ANT3 > ANT4> ANT1 Frequency Range for the Selected Antenna (MHz) 0.03 to 0.522 10.5 to 14.5 0.522 to 2.5 14.5 to 18.5 2.5 to 4.1 18.5 to 21.5 4.1 to 6.9 21.5 to 25.5 6.9 to 7.5 25.5 to 30.0 7.5 to 10.5 30.0 to 60.0 If the same antenna is set for the main band and the sub band, the signal from the antenna will pass the divider circuit, and will be distributed equally to the main band receiver and the sub band receiver. This will result in a sensitivity reduction of approximately 3 dB with a noise level rise by 3 dB. To prevent the sensitivity reduction, turn OFF the sub band receiver or connect an antenna different from that for the main band. 4-22 Index Contents

CHANGING THE ANTENNA
You can change the antenna connected to the rear panel
according to your operating band. ANT1 to ANT4, RX
ANT, and DRV settings will automatically be saved in the
antenna band memory. If you select the same band next
time, the same antenna will automatically be selected. The
antenna band memory is set independently for the sub
band and the main band.
1
Press
[ANT]
(F) to select the antenna.
Each key press cycles the operating mode through the
following sequence.
ANT1 > ANT2 > ANT3 > ANT4> ANT1
Frequency Range for the Selected Antenna (MHz)
0.03 to 0.522
10.5 to 14.5
0.522 to 2.5
14.5 to 18.5
2.5 to 4.1
18.5 to 21.5
4.1 to 6.9
21.5 to 25.5
6.9 to 7.5
25.5 to 30.0
7.5 to 10.5
30.0 to 60.0
If the same antenna is set for the main band and the sub
band, the signal from the antenna will pass the divider
circuit, and will be distributed equally to the main band
receiver and the sub band receiver. This will result in a
sensitivity reduction of approximately 3 dB with a noise
level rise by 3 dB.
To prevent the sensitivity reduction, turn OFF the sub band
receiver or connect an antenna different from that for the
main band.
