To adjust Squelch and Sidetone, go to SETUP MENU > COM RADIO SETUP:

muted when transmissions are not present.
> SIDETONE VOLUME – Adjust for your personal preference of how much microphone audio is
heard in the headset when transmitting.
Displayed COM (Top Bar)
The status of one COM radio can be displayed on the top bar. The radio that is selected here is
also the radio that you can send airports and frequencies to via SkyView’s Map Menu APT>COM
and TUNE COM buttons. See the SkyView Pilot’s User Guide for additional details.
 Go to SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > DISPLAYED COM and select which COM radio
status to display on the Top Bar (or NONE). (To display status of a non-Dynon Avionics

8.33 kHz / 25 kHz Tuning Steps
The default tuning step (channel size) for the SV-COM-X83 is 8.33 kHz, not the traditional 25
kHz for aviation communications. To change to 25 kHz tuning steps (channel size):
SETUP MENU > ENABLE 8.33 KHZ (SV-COM-X83) > NO.
This setting can be changed back to 8.33 kHz at any time.
