FUNCTIONS FOR RECEIVE
■
Preamp/Attenuator
The preamp amplifies received signals in the front end
circuit to improve the S/N ratio and sensitivity. Set this
to preamp 1 or preamp 2 when receiving weak signals.
The attenuator prevents a desired signal from distor-
tion when very strong signals are near the desired fre-
quency or when very storing electric fields, such as
from broadcasting station, are near your location.
These can both set independently for each band.

• When the preamp is ON, either “P.AMP
1
” or
“P.AMP

” appears in the function display.
• When operating on the 144 MHz band, the preamp can
only be set to ON or OFF only— there is no preamp 1

Push [P.AMP/ATT] for 1 sec. to set the attenuator ON.
• “ATT” appears ni the display when the function is set ON.
• Push [P.AMP/ATT] momentarily to set the attenuator OFF.
• Push [P.AMP/ATT] momentarily to set the attenuator OFF.

RIT function
The RIT (Receive Increment Tuning) function compen-
sates for off-frequencies of the communicating station.
The function shifts the receive frequency up to
±9.99 kHz in 10 Hz steps without moving the transmit
frequency.

Push [RIT] to turn the RIT function ON and OFF.
• “RIT” and the shifting frequency appear when the func-
tion is ON.

• Push [CLEAR] for 1 sec. to reset the RIT frequency.
• Push [CLEAR] momentarily to reset the RIT frequency
• Push [CLEAR] momentarily to reset the RIT frequency
when the quick RIT/

TX clear function is ON. (p. 85)
• Push [RIT] for 1 sec. to add the shift frequency to the op-
erating frequency.

Regarding the use of the “P.AMP
2
”
The “P.AMP
2
” is a high gain receive amplifier. When the
“P.AMP
2
” is used during times of strong electric fields, dis-
tortion sometimes results. In such cases, use the trans-
ceiver with the “P.AMP 1” or “P.AMP OFF” setting.
ceiver with the “P.AMP 1” or “P.AMP OFF” setting.
The “P.AMP
2
” is most effective when:
• Used on bands above 24 MHz and when electric fields are
weak.
• Receive sensitivity is insufficient during low gain, or while
using a narrow band antenna
(such as small loop, a Bever-
age antenna or a short Yagi antenna, etc.)
is used.
