The foregoing techniques are common to all modes of
operation. Each mode, however, calls for special techniques
of its own. Such special techniques will be discussed for
each of the five modes.
CW Mode (How to use RIT)
With RIT switch turned off, position MAIN DIAL in
such a way that the incoming CW signal will beat at 900 Hz
(see Note 1). Under this condition, you can "zeroin'' your
operating frequency to the frequency of incoming CW signal
(see Note 2).
Similary, if the other party calls back with 900 Hz beat
tone in response to your call signal, it means that the
transceiver of the other party is in "zero in" status. Should
the other party call back with a beat tone off 900 Hz or
should you want to communicate with a beat frequency of
your choice, turn on RIT switch and adjust RIT knob to ob-
tain the desired beat.

FINAL
RF GAIN
Adjust for maximum sensitivity.
Normally, this knob is set at the
extreme clockwise position.
When the signal is very strong,
turn it counterclockwise for sui-
table gain.
This is used for FM mode of ope-
ration. Turn the knob clockwise
so that noise at no-signal time
disappears. This knob is nor-
mally set at a position where
noise just disappears.
With the RIT switch ON, turn the
knob in either direction and only
the receive frequency will be va-
ried.
Refer to paragraph "How to Use
RIT".
Note: The term "zero in' means that your transmit
frequency perfectly coincides with the transmit
frequency of the other party.
FM Mode
Set the MAIN dial for optimum reception. By setting
the METER switch to the CEN position, the meter functions
as a center meter (center frequency indicated). Turn the
MAIN dial until the center meter pointer may deflect up to
the center spaced on the scale line, while receiving the other
party's signal. In this way, the transmit frequency will
coincide with the receive frequency.
