Tracking Satellites
The "SCAN" function can search for satellites whose exact transponder
frequencies are unknown. The frequency range from 1000 to 2100 MHz
is scanned continuously to detect signals. If signals are received, the
reception level is indicated in a bar display. The measuring range can be
set to three different sensitivity levels.
The level can be monitored with an audio tracking signal, the volume
being proportional to the level of the signal received. The volume of the
audio tracking signal can be set with the volume control.
