RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT
The IF shift function electronically changes the pass-
band frequency of the IF (intermediate frequency)
and cuts out higher or lower frequency components
of the IF to reject interference. The function shifts the
IF frequency up to ±1.2 kHz in 15 Hz steps in
SSB/CW/RTTY modes and up to ±250 Hz in 3 Hz
steps in CW-ã/RTTY-ã modes. The IF shift is not
available in FM and AM modes.
Adjust the [SHIFT] control for a minimum interfer-
ence signal level.
•The audio tone may be changed while the IF shift is in
use.
Set the shift control to its center position when
there is no interference.
Graphic display
The IF shift is displayed graphically (for about 1 sec.)
each time the shift control is rotated.

D RIT function
The RIT (Receive Incremental Tuning) function com-
pensates for off-frequencies of communicating sta-
tions. The function shifts the receive frequency up to
±9.99 kHz in 10 Hz steps without moving the transmit
frequency. The [SUB/RIT] switch in Initial Set Mode
must be set to RIT mode in advance (p. 51).
Push [RIT].
•The [RIT] indicator lights red.
Rotate the [M-CH] control to cancel the off-fre-
quencies.
•The transmit frequency is not shifted.
To cancel the RIT function, push [RIT] again.
•The [RIT] switch indicator goes out.
Calculate function
The shift frequency of the RIT function can be
added/subtracted to the displayed frequency.
While the RIT indicator is lit, push and hold [RIT] for
2 sec.
Note:The RIT function is not available in FM, WFM
or AM modes regardless of the Initial Set mode set-
ting (p. 51).
