MIC GAIN: This control is used to adjust, as required, microphone input

sensitivity for optimum amount of modulation in transmit. UNI DEN CORPO­

RATION OF AMERICA citizen's band transceivers have been designed to permit

the user to attain levels of modulation up to 100% depending on the setting of

the microphone gain control, using the microphone provided with the unit,

UNIDEN's automatic compression and peak limiting circuits assure maximum

modulation with minimum distortion.

6. RF GAIN: This control is used primarily to optimize reception in strong signal

areas. Gain is reduced by counterclockwise rotation of the control.

7. CLARIFIER: The clarifier control is normally set to the center position. This

feature has several uses and can greatly enhance receiver operation. First, if a

received signal is slightly off frequency, this control can be operated as required

to optimize the receiver frequency. The effectiveness of this clarifier features

under these conditions can be observed either by listening for a more readable

signal at the speaker or by noting the S-meter reading when the clarifier control

is operated. Another effective application of this control is in eliminating

adjacent channel interference from strong signals. Operate this control, as

required, to obtain minimum adjacent channel interference.

8. METER MODE SWITCH:

S/RF Position: Meter indicates relative transmitter output power vi^en transmit-

ing, input signal strength when receiving.

MOD Position: Meter indicates average percentage of modulation.

9. NB/ANL SWITCH: When the switch is placed in the NB/ANL position, both of

RF Noise Blanker and Automatic Noise Limiter circuits are activated. The NB is

very effective for repetitive impulse noise such as ignition noise. The ANL

reduces most undesirable interference noises,

DIMMER SWITCH: This switch is used to adjust the brightness of the LED

channel display and the meter. DIM position reduces brightness,

11, СНЭ SWITCH; This switch is for use when emergency communication is needed

on the emergency channel, CH9. Pressing the CH9 switch activates CH9 regard­

less of the position of the channel selector switch. When СНЭ switch is pressed,

the channel display is blanked and the CH9 indicator is activated.

12, MOD—S/RF METER: This meter displays relative transmitter RF output power

and percentage of modulation when transmitting, as well as input signal strength

when receiving. The meter is illuminated when power is on, the illumination can

be adjusted by the DIMMER Switch for optimum brightness.
