The Channel List
118 2110 SSB Transceiver Reference Manual
About channels
A channel is a frequency or pair of frequencies to which a name has been given, such as
‘Channel 1’, ‘4500’ and ‘Headquarters’. You need to enter the details of at least one
channel before you can make or receive a call. Channels are stored in the Channel List.
Settings in the Channel List
When you create a channel you need to enter:
• a name for the channel
• the receive and transmit frequencies of the channel, if applicable
• one or more modes to be used with the channel
Channel names
A channel name can consist of letters, numbers or a combination of both. Before you
name any channels, consider using group names to make navigation in the Channel List
easier (for more information see page 103, Grouping and ungrouping entries).
Frequencies
The receive and transmit frequencies may be any frequencies within the HF range.
However, the transmit frequencies can only be those allocated to you by the relevant
government authority in your country.
Spectral regulations may require the TxD option to be installed in the transceiver. In this
case, you cannot create channels with new transmit frequencies. You can, however,
create receive-only channels, and channels with the same transmit frequency as an
existing channel. If the TxP option has been installed in the transceiver, you cannot
create channels.
Modes
A mode specifies a combination of a sideband (for example, USB or LSB) and IF filter
settings (that is, bandwidth and centre frequency). Each channel must have at least one
mode. You may want to select several modes for each channel depending on the modes
available to you.
When the standard IF filter is fitted, the allowable modes are USB and LSB. If a different
filter is fitted, other modes are available. For example, if you have a wide IF filter fitted,
USBW and LSBW are available. If you have a narrow Morse filter fitted, USB CW and
LSB CW are available.
CAUTION
You should be aware of any restrictions placed on channel names in your
transceiver when it is used with InterNav software. For more information
see the documentation provided with this equipment.
