Option Description
CW
Select the channel filter bandwidth used in the CW mode:
• 0.25 – 250 Hz
• 0.5 – 500 Hz
• 0.8 – 800 Hz
A lower value improves the reception but requires better frequency accuracy.
RCLV
Enables/disables the receive signal level display. If the receive signal indication is not
enabled, you can temporarily enable it using one of the function keys.
DIM
Enables/disables automatic dimming of the display.
Usually, the display operates continuously. However, you can program the display to be
normally off, and be automatically turned on when the transceiver detects any type of
activity (keypad, PTT, incoming call, etc.). The ADT option selects the time before the
display is again turned off when inactive.
