5411 SPECIALIZED COMMUNICATIONS3 Press [LSB/ USB/ AUTO] or [CW/ FSK/ REV] toselect LSB, USB, or CW mode.4 As the Satellite moves, fine tune to the changingdownlink (RX) frequency of the satellite using theTuning control (adjusting the Doppler effect).• As you adjust the downlink (RX) frequency, theTrace function automatically changes the uplinkfrequency so that the sum of the twofrequencies is kept the same (Reverse Trace).• If necessary, press [A=B / TRACE] to quit theTrace function. “TRACE” disappears.• The trace function can also change the uplink(TX) frequency so that the difference betweenthe two frequencies is kept the same (NormalTrace).5 If you want to switch to the normal trace mode,press [SPLIT / REV]. “R” disappears.6 To adjust the frequency on the sub-band display(normally the uplink frequency) without tracing,turn the RIT/ SUB control. To adjust it using thetrace function, press [A/B / M/S] to swap the mainband frequency and sub-band frequency then turnthe Tuning control or MULTI/ CH control. Thefollowing table shows which control to use whenadjusting frequencies with tracing ON and OFF.ECART ECART ECART ECART ECART /RECART RECART RECART RECART RECART NOECART ECART ECART ECART ECART /RECART RECART RECART RECART RECART FFONIAM NIAM NIAM NIAM NIAM lortnoc)eniF( buSdnaniaM niaMHC/ITLUM HC/ITLUM HC/ITLUM HC/ITLUM HC/ITLUM)esraoC(lortnoc buSdnaniaM niaMBUS/TIR BUS/TIR BUS/TIR BUS/TIR BUS/TIRlortnoc buS buSSTORING SATELLITE MEMORY CHANNELSYou can store all the above settings to one of 10Satellite memory channels for the future operations.1 Press [M.IN], then turn the MULTI/ CH control toselect a channel from 0 to 9.2 Select your desired settings.3 Press [M.IN] again to store the selection to thememory channel. To quit, press [CLR].Note: The Satellite Memory channel does not hold the frequencyadjustment values when the channel is changed. So, when youchange the channel number or switch the transceiver OFF, theadjustment frequency values are cleared if they are not stored bypressing [M.IN].RECALLING A SATELLITE MEMORY CHANNEL1 Press [VFO/M / VFO/CH].• The MULTI/ CH LED lights.2 Turn the MULTI/ CH control to select the desiredSatellite Memory channel.3 Press [VFO/M / VFO/CH] to return to thefrequency adjustment mode.SATELLITE CHANNEL NAMEYou can name each Satellite Memory channel using amaximum of 8 alpha-numeric characters. First, storethe settings to the Satellite Memory channel {above}.To store the Satellite Channel name:1 Press [M.IN] then turn the MULTI/ CH control toselect the Satellite Memory channel.2 Press [DISP].3 An entry cursor appears. Select a character byturning MULTI/ CH control, then move the cursorusing [SUB] or [MAIN]. You can also use theother methods to enter the characters. Refer topage 63 for details.4 Press [M.IN] to store the name to the SatelliteMemory channel. Press [CLR] to quit.5 The stored Satellite Memory name appears on themain dot-matrix display.QUICK MEMORY IN SATELLITE MODEWhile in the Satellite mode, only 1 Quick Memorychannel is available. It uses Satellite Memorychannel 9 to store the settings. To store the settingsto the Quick Memory in Satellite mode, press QUICKMEMO [M.IN]. The settings are stored to SatelliteMemory channel 9.To recall the Quick Memory, press QUICK MEMO[MR] or select Satellite Memory channel 9, using theMULTI/ CH control. Satellite Memory channel 9 isrecalled.CHECKING THE UPLINK FREQUENCYWhen you need to monitor the uplink (TX) frequency,press [TF-SET]. Each time you press [TF-SET], theuplink (TX) frequency and the downlink (RX)frequency are swapped.USING XIT/ RIT IN SATELLITE MODEYou can also use the RIT or XIT function while in theSatellite mode. Press [RIT/ CW TUNE] or [XIT/ ALT]to activate the function. When the RIT or XIT functionis ON, the sub-band frequency display shows thecurrent RIT or XIT offset frequency instead of theoperating frequency. To clear the RIT or XIT offsetfrequency, press [CLEAR].Note: You cannot activate both the RIT and XIT functions at thesame time in the Satellite mode.CHANGING THE FREQUENCY BANDIf you need to change the uplink and/or downlinkfrequency band, press [CTRL] to move the “ ” iconto the frequency band that you want to change.Then, press [+] or [–] to select the band you want tooperate.
