When a Yaesu Rotator (G-800DXA, G-1000DXA,
or G-2800DXA) is connected to the transceiver, press
this key to rotate the antenna in the CW (clockwise)
direction.
In order to direct the antenna to the desired/opposite sta-
tion, a Great Circle Map can be displayed on the screen.
This Great Circle map will show your location at the cen-
ter of the map, and you can easily recognize and confirm
the direction your antenna should be pointed to work a
station elsewhere in the world.
In addition, when a Yaesu Rotator (G-800DXA, G-
1000DXA, or G-2800DXA) is connected to the trans-
ceiver, the transceiver can control the direction of the ro-
tation, rotation speed, etc. on the display screen. In this
case, the rotator has to be connected to the transceiver via
the optional cable T9101556, available from your YAESU
dealer.
If the “Rotator Control” screen does not initially appear,
press the
