USING THE G5’s SSB (Single Side Band) FEATURE (8)
SSB enables listening to shortwave signals using the single-sideband
mode. This mode is used for a variety of signals including amateur
radio and other two-way communications, Morse code, weather-
fax transmissions and other encoded signals often referred to as
‘utility’ signals. To use SSB, turn on the SSB circuit by pressing the
SSB button. Note that SSB appears in the display (31). Tune to the
shortwave frequency of your choice. Use the tuning knob to coarse-
tune the SSB signal, then fine-tune with the –FINE+ knob (42). This
SSB circuit allows tuning of both upper and

lower sideband signals.
