B Selecting a tuning step » What are tuning steps? Tuning steps are the frequency change increments when you relate s tuning control or operas a scan. The following spats are available 0.5, 12.5, 20, 25, 30 and 50 kHz. *For the108~1630 kHz range only. It s important to set the peeper inning step for the type of station you want 1o listen 1o, Some tuning steps are determined by frequency band or receive mode and others are set by tradition.
. i 5 BASIC OPERATION W Tuning a frequency (via the keyboard ) When vou know the exact! frequency you want io listen 10, the quickest Way 1o tune tin is by direct keyboard entry, Remember that the fluency must be between 0.1 MHz and 1300 MHz.

M Tuning a frequency (via the tuning control When vou want to listen to frequencies near the displayed frequency, the easiest way fo tine them is with the tuning control All signals have what ia called an occupied bandwidth? They wiki be received s Song as the receiver s down anywhere within this bandwidth, Sven though the frequency received may not bs the central frequency.
