You may listen to the quality of your transmitted signal using the Monitor feature.

[

button. The “ ” icon will ap-
pear in the display, indicating that the Monitor is turned
on.
2. During transmission, rotate the
[
MONI

just the audio level in the Headphones or speaker.
Clockwise rotation of this knob will increase the vol-
ume level.

[
MONI

firming that the Monitor is now disengaged.
ADVICE:
 If you are using the speaker for monitoring, excessive
advancement of the
[
MONI
]
knob can cause feedback
to occur. This feedback can cause the VOX system to
hang up in a loop, making it impossible for VOX to
return to receive. Therefore, we recommend the use of
headphones, if possible. If the speaker must be used,
adjust the
[
MONI
]
knob to the minimum useable set-
ting.
 Because the Monitor feature samples the transmitter
IF signal, it can be very useful for checking the adjust-
ment of the Speech Processor or Parametric Equalizer
on SSB, and for checking the general signal quality on
AM and FM.
