Grundig 800 MILLENNIUM - Manual (Page 11)

FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
1. Power - Press this button to turn the unit on or off.
2. Headphone Jack - This connector accepts a 1/8"
stereo/mono headphone connector. Stereo reception is
possible only in the FM mode. All speaker outputs are
automatically switched off when using the headphones.
3. Volume - With the receiver on, adjust this control
clockwise to increase the audio level from the receiver's
speaker, external speaker, or from headphones. Be certain
to set the volume setting at the desired level for TIMER use.
4. Bass - This control adjusts the audio frequency
response at the low end of the audio spectrum. Adjust
clockwise for more bass response.
5. Treble - This control adjusts the audio frequency
response at the high end of the audio spectrum. Adjust
clockwise for more treble response.
6. Air Band Squelch - This control is operational only for
the Aircraft band. The control allows muting of the
receiver's audio when no signals are present. Adjust the
control until background noise just disappears when no
signal is being received.
7. Attenuator - Press to turn on the built in 20 dB attenuator
to reduce the received signal strength in the AM broadcast
and Shortwave bands as required. The attenuator is not
active in the FM and Aircraft bands. Successive
depressions of the button toggle the attenuator on and off.
8. AGC - Press to select either the Slow or Fast AGC
setting for the AM broadcast, Shortwave and Aircraft
bands. The AGC is not selectable in the FM mode.
9. Bandwidth - Press to select the desired bandwidth: 2.3
kHz, 4.0 kHz or 6.0 kHz. The bandwidth setting can be
programmed to be automatic with mode selection, or
manual. The default setting is for automatic selection. This
function has no action in the FM mode. The 6.0 kHz
bandwidth is automatically selected in the AM mode. The
2.3 kHz bandwidth is the default for the SSB modes. All
three bandwidths are selectable by successive depressions
of this button for the AM broadcast, Shortwave and Aircraft
bands. To disable the automatic bandwidth selection with
mode, start in the POWER 'OFF' mode and press and hold
the BANDWIDTH button while pressing the POWER button
to put the receiver in the POWER 'ON' mode. To enable
the automatic bandwidth selection with mode operation,
repeat the same procedure.
10. AM Sync - Press to select the AM mode of operation.
Successive depressions toggle the synchronous detector
on and off. Press to turn the synchronous detector off
before selecting SSB modes. The 'AM' and 'AM SYNC'
modes are not accessible in the FM band. The 'AM SYNC'
mode is not accessible in the Aircraft band. 11. SSB USB-LSB- Press to select the SSB mode of
operation ('SYNC' must be turned off). Successive
depressions alternately select the 'LSB' or 'USB' modes as
displayed. The SSB mode of operation is not accessed in
either the FM or Aircraft band modes. Pressing the 'SSB
USB-LSB' button while 'AM SYNC' mode is engaged will
alternately select the upper or lower sideband portions of
the AM signal being received.
12. Band - Repeatedly pressing this button will cycle
through the Air (Aircraft), FM (FM Broadcast), SW
(Shortwave) and AM (AM broadcast) bands.
13. LCD Display - The backlit, liquid crystal display
provides the current status of the SATELLIT 800
MILLENNIUM such as frequency, mode, bandwidth, etc.
Refer to LCD DISPLAY DESCRIPTION on page 14 of this
manual for a full description.
14. Tuning - The 'TUNING' knob and the and
buttons are the primary tuning controls of the SATELLIT 800
MILLENNIUM. Clockwise rotation of the dial increases
frequency and counterclockwise rotation decreases
frequency. The dial also incorporates variable speed
tuning. The faster the dial is rotated, the faster the tuning
speed. The button increases and the button
decreases the frequency by fixed steps (10 kHz or 9 kHz
selectable in the AM broadcast band, 5 kHz on the
Shortwave band, 100 kHz on the FM broadcast band and
25 kHz on the Aircraft band) with each depression.
Pressing and holding either button will allow continuous
stepping up or down as long as the button is depressed.
15. FUNCTION KEYS
STORE - This button is used to store the desired
frequency, mode, attenuator, synchronous detector, AGC
bandwidth, etc. as one of 70 memory channels. When
pressed, the 'MEMORY' symbol will flash in the display.
Enter a two digit number between '00' and '69' for the
desired memory channel. An audible beep will indicate
that the memory channel has been stored with the newly
entered settings.
MEMO - To recall a memory channel at any time, press
the 'MEMO' button and within three seconds of the button
depression, enter a two-digit number between '00' and '69'.
With 'MEMORY' displayed, other adjacent memory
channels can be recalled by use of the and
buttons. The 'Tuning' knob may be used totune from the
recalled frequency of the selected memory channel. Please
note that numerical entries are interpreted as frequency
entries if the 'MEMORY' channel number is not flashing.
