3. DETAILED OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
3.1. INTRODUCTION
Chapter 2 of this manual describes many
of JUPITER’ в basic transmit and receive
functions in sufficient detail to get
started quickly. This chapter provides
more detailed operating instructions to
permit taking full advantage of the
transceiver's capabilities. Customize
these settings to your operating
preferences. JUPITER will retain them
in non-volatile memory if you wait
approximately five seconds without
adjusting апу controls before you
remove power from the radio. When
you next turn on the radio your custom
settings will remain until you change
them.
3.2. АМ OPERATION
Double-sideband-AM-with-carrier was
once the predominant mode of voice
modulation in amateur radio. Because
АМ remains popular with some of our
customers, Ten-Tec has added DSP
firmware to JUPITER to enable that
mode.
Two of JUPITER's controls operate
differently when AM is the selected
mode. The TUNE control activates the
AM-AUTO-SET function. Pushing that
key with the MODE іп AM causes
JUPITER to automatically adjust carrier
power to 25 watts in order to keep the
peak modulated RF output to 100 watts.
CAUTION: the RF output will pulse to
100 watts during this operation. Be
certain that no amplifier is inline and
active. We recommend using a dummy
load rather than an antenna for setting up
AM.

The PWR control becomes an AM
DRIVE control to permit reducing the
carrier level after the АМ-АШТО БЕТ
function has done its work. Adjust this
control for 25 watts or less of carrier.
