The sub dial function allows you to change the oper-
ating frequency using the [M-CH] control. This gives
you more control in tuning since the [M-CH] knob is
detented—each click changes the frequency
according to the set tuning step. This function is
always available in FM, WFM and AM modes.
However, in SSB, CW and RTTY modes, the set
mode item “Sub dial function,” must be set to “FrEq.”
