CHANGING THE PASSBAND WIDTH AND SHIFT

TO ADJUST PASSBAND CHARACTERISTICS

For use in CW or SSB-DATA mode, you can change the

passband width of the DSP filter and its amount of shift

from the center frequency. For use in RTTY (FSK) or

PSK mode, you can change the passband width. You can

change the passband width so that interference will be

outside the bandwidth of the filter.

1 Press a mode key to select CW, USB-DATA, LSB-

DATA, FSK, or PSK mode.

2 Press and hold [FIL/SEL] (M) or [FIL/SEL] (S) to open

the RX Filter screen.

The selected band and the mode name while receiving

appear, and the selected RX filter (A, B, or C) can be edited.

3 Rotate the LO/WIDTH control to change the passband

width.

Rotating the control clockwise increases the passband width

and counterclockwise decreases the passband width.

4 Rotate the HI/SHIFT control.

Rotating the control clockwise shifts the frequency passband

width higher and counterclockwise shifts the frequency

passband width lower. The frequency range for use in FSK

and PSK mode cannot be adjusted.

5 Press [ESC] to exit.

Pressing [FIL/SEL] (M) or [FIL/SEL] (S) closes the RX Filter

screen.

ACTIVATING AUDIO PEAK FILTER FOR USE IN

CW MODE

If the readability of a signal is affected by noise or any

other interference while receiving in CW mode, passing

the receive signal through a bandwidth centered on the

CW pitch frequency improves its readability.

[CW/CW-R]

[APF/SEL] (S)

[APF/SEL] (M)

1 Press [CW/CW-R] to select CW mode.
2 Press [APF/SEL] (M) or [APF/SEL] (S).

• Each time you press either one of the keys, the audio peak

filter for the selected band toggles between active and

inactive. While the audio peak filter is active, the "APF/SEL"

(M) or "APF/SEL" (S) LED lights green.

• The audio peak filter for the selected band is disabled by a

press of the same key.
