About the 5 MHz frequency band operation (USA version only) D
Operation on the 5 MHz frequency band is allowed on
5 discrete frequencies and must adhere to the follow-
ing:
• The USB, USB Data, CW and PSK modes
• Maximum of 100 watts ERP
(Effective Radiated Power)
• 2.8 kHz bandwidth (maximum)
It is your responsibility to set all controls so that trans-
mission in this frequency band meets the stringent con-
ditions under which amateur operations may use these
frequencies.
NOTE: We recommend that you store these frequen-
cies, modes and fi lter settings into memory chan-
nels, for easy recall.
To assist you in operating within the rules specifi ed by the
FCC, transmission is illegal on any frequencies other than
the fi ve shown in the tables at the right.
• For the USB mode
The FCC specifi es center frequencies on the 5 MHz fre-
quency band. However, the transceiver displays carrier
frequency. Therefore, tune the transceiver to 1.5 kHz
below the specifi ed FCC channel center frequency.

• For the CW mode
The transceiver displays the center frequency. There-
fore, tune the transceiver to the specifi ed FCC channel
frequency when you operate in the CW mode.
