10.
Rotate the Main Tuning Dial knob to tune around the
band, and begin normal operation.
ADVICE:
Clockwise rotation of the Main Tuning Dial knob
increases the operating frequency, one “step” of the
synthesizer at a time; similarly, counter-clockwise
rotation of the Main Tuning Dial knob will decrease
the frequency.
Two steps, one “normal”
and one “fast,” are available
on each operating mode.
Pressing the
[
FAST
]
button
engages the “Fast” tuning
selection.
It is possible to separate the frequency change over
one dial rotation, only while operating solely on
the CW mode, using the Menu items “116 tun
DIALSTP,” and “117 tun CW FINE.” See page 123.
If you want to navigate quickly, so as to effect rapid
frequency change, there are several techniques
available:
Direct keyboard entry of the frequency (see page
49).
Use the
[
SUB VFO-B
]
knob to tune in 1 MHz
steps (see page 49).
Use the microphone’s
[
UP
]
/
[
DWN
]
scanning
keys, if your microphone is so equipped (see
page 49).
