Filter Settings

To adjust the filter width:

  • Press FIL1 (or FIL2 or FIL3) button at the top of the screen (above frequency) until it says FIL1.
  • Press and hold FIL1 (yes, the same button as before).
  • Press the BW button and turn the VFO knob until it says “3.6k”
  • Then turn the TWIN PBT knob (top left) to adjust the boundaries to 600 and 2600 (the picture shows 650 and 3400). This step can be tweaked anytime on the fly to filter out unwanted signals at the edge of the band. This is useful if say you've got strong RTTY signals activating your AGC, thus reducing the strength of the signals you're interested in.
  • Optionally, press FIL1 again to also customize FIL2 and FIL3.
  • When done, press the MENU button and select the screen you usually like to see (SCOPE, METER, etc)

ACG Adjustments

  • Pick a clear frequency.
  • Press FUNCTION button.
  • Press and hold the AGC button.
  • Select the FAST button and turn the VFO knob until it reads OFF.
  • Optionally, set the MID to 0.3s and the SLOW to 2.0s.
  • Press <MENU> and select SCOPE, or METER, or ...
