FT-920 Operating Manual
73
U-01 ( DIAL-S )
Function: VFO-A/VFO-B Tuning Dial Speed
Available Values: 4/ 2
Default: 4
You may choose between two speeds for the tuning
dials. Selecting “2” cuts the tuning rate in half com-
pared to the default value.
U-02 ( UP/DN-S )
Function: UP/DOWN Switch Steps (front panel)
Available Values: 0.5 ~ 1000 (kHz/Step)
Default: 100 kHz/Step
The default value is ideal for quick navigation from
one end of a band to the other. For quick tuning
around within a band segment, a value like 1 kHz
may be preferable.
U-03 ( STEPSET )
Function: STEP Switch Function
Available Values: LoC/no-LoC
Default: LoC
The LoC(Lock) position allows toggling of the Fast
Þ Fine Þ Normal tuning rate. If no-LoC is chosen,
you must hold the [STEP] key
in
while the “Fast” or
“Fine” indicator is illuminated in order for those tun-
ing rates to be chosen. After releasing the [STEP] key,
the tuning rate will return to “Normal.”
U-04 ( QCK SPL )
Function: Activation/Setting of Magnitude of Quick Split
Available Values: oFF or -100 ~ 100 kHz
Default: oFF
If the Quick Split Menu Item is set to anything other
than Off, pressing the [A K B] key will put the trans-
ceiver in the “Split” mode, with TX on VFO-B and RX
on VFO-A. Additionally, a frequency offset (referenced
to the RX frequency) will be applied, per your setting
of this Menu Item.
U-05 ( SPOT-TX )
Function: Activation/De-activation of TX when the
[SPOT] key is pushed
Available Values: on/off
Default: off
Normally, pressing the [SPOT] key only causes you to
hear an audible tone corresponding to the pitch of
your own transmitted signal (in the CW mode). By
setting this Menu Item to On, however, you can also
cause the FT-920 to
transmit
when the [\SPOT] key is
pressed.
U-06 ( BEEP-F )
Function: Setting of Key Beeper Frequency
Available Values:
oFF or 220 ~ 7040 Hz
Default: 880 Hz
The Menu Item allows you to set the tone of the front
panel key Beep tone generator to whatever value is
comfortable. It also allows you to disable the Beep
tone, if desired.
U-07 ( MTR-PH )
Function: Enabling/Disabling of the “Peak-Hold”
function of the S/PO meter.
Available Values: 0(off) ~ 2000 ms.
Default: 0(off)
U-08 ( DIMMER )
Function: Adjustment of illumination level for front
panel display
Available Values: on/oFF
Default: oFF
In low-light situations, activating the Dimmer may re-
duce excess brightness in the display. For normal
room lighting, however, this Menu Item should be set
to Off for best visibility.
