Digital Mode Operation
28
Not to Scale
• Use Digital Mode setting or disconnect microphone/disable audio processing
• Set your audio drive just below the point where you see ALC meter
deflection
• Be mindful of power levels when operating in “shared passband” modes like
PSK or JT65
• If not, you’ll be the strong, close-in interferer that everyone dislikes…
• Use noise reduction sparingly as the distortion it causes can impair decoding
• If calling CQ, use your receive filters to improve S/N ratio, adjacent signal
rejection and AGC operation
