VX-7R OPERATING MANUAL44
CHANGING THE TX DEVIATION LEVEL
In many areas of the world, channel congestion has required that operating channels be
closely spaced. In such operating environments, it often is required that operators use
reduced deviation levels, so as to reduce the potential for interference to users on adjacent
channels. The VX-7R includes a simple method of accomplishing this:
1. Press the key, then press the key to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL to select the Menu Item labeled (Misc Setup #6: HALF DEVIATION).
3. Press the or key to change this setting to ON. In
this configuration (HALF DEVIATION active), the
transmitter’s deviation will be approximately ±2.5 kHz.
4. When you have made your selection, press the PTT key
to save the new setting and exit to normal operation.
The “normal” setting for the deviation (when this Menu Item is set to OFF) is
±5 kHz.
