Page 49FT-2000D O PERATING M ANUALMORE FREQUENCY NAVIGATION TECHNIQUESKeyboard Frequency EntryYou may enter operating frequencies, for either the Main(VFO-A) or Sub (VFO-B) bands, using the front panelband/frequency selection keys.Example 1:Enter 14.250.00 MHz into the Main band (VFO-A):1. Press the [ENT] buttonto engage the direct fre-quency entry process.Now, beginning withthe “10 MHz” digit ofthe frequency (theleftmost digit), we willenter the required dig-its of the frequency.2. Press, in order, the digits of the operating frequency,using the [BAND] buttons (which have the frequency-entry digit or decimal point on the right side of theslash bar). In this example, enter[1.8/1] Æ [10/4] Æ[GEN/.] Æ [3.5/2] Æ[14/5] Æ [50/0] Æ [50/0] Æ [50/0] Æ [50/0]The decimal point after the “MHz” portion of the fre-quency must be entered, but no decimal point is re-quired after the “kHz” portion.3. Press the [ENT] button once more. A short “beep” willconfirm that the frequency entry was successful, andthe new operating frequency will appear on the Main(VFO-A) frequency display fields.Example 2:Enter 7.100.000 MHz into the Sub band (VFO-B):1. Press the [B] button.2. Within five seconds (blinking theimbedded orange LED) of pressingthe [B] button, press the [ENT] but-ton to engage the direct frequency entry process. Now,beginning with the “10 MHz” digit of the frequency(the leftmost digit), we will enter the required digits ofthe frequency to be entered into the Sub band (VFO-B) register.3. Press, in order, the digits of the operating frequency,using the [BAND] buttons (which have the frequency-entry digit or decimal point on the right side of theslash bar). In this example, enter[21/7] Æ [GEN/.] Æ [1.8/1] Æ[50/0] Æ [50/0] Æ [50/0] Æ [50/0] Æ [50/0]4. Press the [ENT] button once more. A short “beep” willconfirm that the frequency entry was successful, andthe new operating frequency will appear on the Sub(VFO-B) frequency display fields.A DVICE:If you attempt to enter a frequency outside the operat-ing range of 30 kHz ~ 60 MHz, the microprocessorwill ignore the attempt, and you will be returned toyour previous operating frequency. If this happens,please try again, taking care not to repeat the error inthe frequency entry process.Using the [SUB VFO-B] knobYou may change the Main band (VFO-A) frequency in 1MHz steps. If you press the (VFO-A) [BAND] button, the1 MHz steps will be applied to the Main band (VFO-A)frequency. The imbedded LED in the (VFO-A) [BAND]button will glow Red in the latter case.When tuning in 1 MHz steps, clockwise rotation of the[SUB VFO-B] knob will increase the frequency, whilecounter-clockwise rotation will decrease the frequency.Using the UP/DOWN Switches of theSupplied MH-31 B8 Hand MicrophoneThe [UP]/[DWN] switches onthe supplied MH-31 B8 HandMicrophone may also be usedfor manually scanning upward ordownward in frequency, respec-tively.The microphone’s [UP]/[DWN]switches utilize the tuning steps ofthe Main Tuning Dial knob; moreover,when the microphone’s [FAST] key ispressed, the tuning rate increases by afactor of ten, in a manner similar to theeffect of the transceiver’s front-panel[FAST] button.A DVICE:In the AM and FM modes, you may independently set thetuning steps when using the [UP]/[DWN] switches. To setnew tuning steps, use Menu items “121 tun AM STEP”and “122 tun FM STEP.”C ONVENIENCE F EATURESDYNAMIC MICROPHONEMH-31DWN FST UP[DWN] Button[FST] Button[UP] Button
