TX Delay  (Default: All bands; OFF)
Function > TX Delay (TX Delay)
Sets  the  transmission’s  timing  for  each  operating 
band.
When an external device, such as a vacuum tube linear 
amplifier or a receiver preamplifier, is connected to the 
transceiver and you use the SEND line, a problem could 
possibly occur. If  the  device’s  transmit/receive  switch-
ing time is slower than the time for the Icom transceiver, 
the device may not yet ready for a transmitted signal, 
and could be damaged by the transceivers RF power. 
If necessary to prevent damage to the external device, 
set an appropriate TX delay.
• OFF:  The transmission delay is disabled.
• 10 to 30ms:   After pushing [PTT], the transmission is 
delayed for the set period of time (10, 15, 
20, 25 or 30 milliseconds).
Time-Out Timer  (Default: OFF)
Function > Time-Out Timer (Time-Out Timer)
To  prevent  accidental  prolonged  transmission,  the 
transceiver has a time-out timer.
The  function inhibits  continuous  transmissions  longer 
than the set time period.
• OFF:   Turns the function OFF. 
• 3 to 30 min:  The transmission is cut OFF after the set 
time period ends (3, 5, 10, 20 or 30 min-
utes). 
PTT Lock  (Default: OFF)
Function > PTT Lock (PTT Lock)
Turn the PTT lock function ON and OFF.
To prevent accidental transmissions, this function dis-
ables [PTT].
Quick SPLIT  (Default: ON)
Function > SPLIT/DUP > Quick SPLIT (Quick SPLIT)
Turn the Quick Split function ON or OFF.
When this item is set to ON, hold down [SPLIT] for 1 
second to shift the transmit frequency from the receive 
frequency,  according  to  the  “SPLIT  Offset”  option  as 
described to the right. 
• OFF: Turns the function OFF. 
• ON:   Holding down [SPLIT] for 1 second quickly se-
lects split frequency operation.
SPLIT Offset  (Default: 0.000 MHz)
Function > SPLIT/DUP > SPLIT Offset (SPLIT Offset)
Set the offset* for the quick split function.
*The difference between transmit and receive frequencies.
The  frequency  offset  can  be  set  to  between  –9.999 
MHz and +9.999 MHz in 1 kHz steps.
SPLIT LOCK  (Default: OFF)
Function > SPLIT/DUP > SPLIT LOCK (SPLIT LOCK)
Turn the Split Lock function ON or OFF.
When  this  item  is set  to ON,  you can  use the  Dial to 
adjust the transmit frequency while holding down 
, 
even while the Dial Lock function is enabled.
To prevent accidentally changing the receive frequency 
by  rotating  the  main  dial,  use  both  the  SPLIT  LOCK 
and Dial Lock functions.
See pages 6-8 to 6-10 for split frequency operation de-
tails.
DUP Offset
Function > SPLIT/DUP > DUP Offset (DUP Offset)
Set the offset* for duplex operation. You can set the re-
peater offset for each band.
*The difference between transmit and receive frequencies.
 Before  selecting  this  item,  select  the  desired  fre- ➥
quency band. Then, set the offset.
  •  The frequency offset can be set to between 0.0000 MHz 
and 9.9999 MHz.
The default  value may differ, depending on the  se-
lected frequency band and transceiver version.
NOTE:
•  The shift direction can be set with [DUP] on M1 (M1 
Menu) screen.
•  You can use this setting only when the Split function 
is OFF.
•  If  the  DR  mode  is  selected  before  selecting  this 
item, editing is restricted.
One Touch Repeater  (Default: DUP–)
Function  >  SPLIT/DUP  >  One Touch  Repeater  (One 
Touch Repeater)
Set the one touch repeater shift direction.
• DUP–:  The  transmit frequency  shifts  down  from  the 
receive frequency by the offset amount.
• DUP+: The transmit frequency shifts up from the re-
ceive frequency by the offset amount.
