FT-920 Operating Manual
29
(12) [GEN]
This icon is illuminated when the transceiver is tuned
to a frequency outside one of the 500 kHz segments
containing an Amateur band. Transmission will be
inhibited when the [GEN] icon is lit.
(13) [F
INE]
This icon is illuminated when “Fine” synthesizer steps
have been selected, for fine tuning using the VFO-A
and VFO-B Tuning Knobs, or the UP(p)/(q )DOWN
switches. The tuning rate, in the “Fine” mode, is 1/
10th the “Normal” rate.
(14) [NB]
This icon is illuminated when the IF Noise Blanker is
turned on.
(15) VFO-A Mode
These icons display the operating mode in use on
VFO-A.
(16) [MONI]
This icon is illuminated when the voice monitor is ac-
tivated.
(17) Enhanced Tuning Scale
This meter scale provides a wide variety of informa-
tion regarding the operation of the transceiver, de-
pending on its configuration (via Menu Item U-10).
At the factory, the Enhanced Tuning Scale is set up
so as to provide a visual representation of the DSP
system’s bandwidth. Other configurations allow de-
piction of the Clarifier offset direction and magnitude,
as well as tuning accuracy. See the discussion on
page 74 for details.
(18) VFO-A Frequency Display
This is the main frequency display for the transceiver’s
primary (A) VFO. Display resolution to 10 Hz is pro-
vided.
(19) [LOCK]
This icon is illuminated when the VFO-A “Lock” func-
tion is activated so as to prevent inadvertent frequency
changes.
(20) [QMB]
This icon is illuminated when frequency data is re-
called from the Quick Memory Bank.
(21) [VFO]
This icon is illuminated when frequency data is pro-
vided by the VFO system.
(22) [MEM]
This icon is illuminated when frequency data is re-
called from the Memory system.
(23) [MEM TUNE]
This icon is illuminated when transceiver frequency
control is in a pseudo-VFO mode known as “Memory
Tune,” whereby a memory channel is used as a start-
ing point for tuning using the VFO-A Tuning Dial.
