4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Convenient for receiving Convenient for transmitting DDAll operating modes DDSSB, AM and FM modes Notch Filter (p. 4-9) Automatically attenuates beat tones, tuning signals, and so on. ••In the SSB or AM mode: Transmit Monitor (p. 4-11) The Monitor function enables you to monitor your transmit audio. Preamplifiers and Attenuator (p. 4-3) Use one of the Preamplifiers when receiving weak signals and use the Attenuator to prevent distortion when receiving strong signals.
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Preamplifiers RIT function The preamps amplify received signals in the receiver front end to improve the signal-to-noise ratio and sensitivity. A preamp is used when receiving weak signals. L Each band memorizes the Preamplifier setting. The RIT (Receive Increment Tuning) function compensates for differences in frequencies of other stations. The function shifts the receive frequency up to ±9.99 without shifting the transmit frequency. Push 1. Push P.AMP ATT (P.AMP).
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING AGC function control The AGC (Automatic Gain Control) controls receiver gain to produce a constant audio output level, even when the received signal strength varies greatly. DDSetting the AGC time constant DD Selecting the AGC time constant preset value 1. Select the operating mode. (Example: SSB) 2. Push FUNCTION . You can set the preset AGC time constant to a desired value. The transceiver has 3 preset AGC settings for all modes except the FM mode.
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Using the Twin PBT SSB, CW, RTTY and AM modes In general, the Twin PBT (Passband Tuning) electronically narrows the IF passband width by shifting the IF frequency to slightly outside of the IF filter passband, to reject interference. The IC-7300 uses DSP for the PBT function. You can narrow the IF passband width by rotating both TWIN PBT CLR inner (PBT1) and outer (PBT2) to the opposite direction from each other.
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Selecting the IF filter The transceiver has 3 IF filter passband widths for each mode, and you can select them on the FILTER screen. You can set the IF filter to wide (FIL 1), mid (FIL 2) or narrow (FIL 3). Mode SSB 1. Select the operating mode. (Example: USB) 2. Touch the filter icon for 1 second. SSB-D CW ••Opens the FILTER (SSB) screen. RTTY AM AM-D 3. Touch the filter icon more times to select FIL 1 (wide), FIL 2 (mid) or FIL 3 (narrow). 4. Touch [BW].
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Selecting the IF filter shape (Continued) ••SHARP This selection is to emphasize the passband width of the filter. The filter has an almost ideal shape factor. Signals of the out of passband are extremely filtered out and it gives you better audio quality. ••SOFT The filter shoulders are roundly formed as in analog filters. This decreases noise components in the high and low frequencies of the filter passband and increases the S/N of the target signal.
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Noise Blanker The Noise blanker eliminates pulse-type noise such as the noise from car ignitions. The Noise blanker cannot be used in the FM mode. LEVEL (Default: 50%) Adjust the level where the Noise Blanker activates between 0 and 100%. Push DEPTH (Default: 8) Adjust the noise attenuation level to between 1 and 10. NB to turn the Noise Blanker ON or OFF. Displayed WIDTH (Default: 50) Adjust the blanking duration time to between 1 and 100.
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Noise Reduction Notch Filter The Noise Reduction function reduces random noise components and enhances desired signals that are buried in noise. The Noise Reduction function uses the DSP circuit. The IC-7300 has Auto Notch and Manual Notch functions. Auto Notch: Used in the SSB, AM and FM modes. Manual Notch: Used in the SSB, CW, RTTY and AM modes. Push OFF.
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING VOX function The VOX (Voice-Operated Transmission) function switches between transmit and receive with your voice. This function enables a hands-free operation. DDAdjusting the VOX function Before using the VOX function, adjust the following items. VOX GAIN (Default: 50%) Adjust the transmit/receive switching threshold level to between 0% and 100% for VOX operation. Higher values make the VOX function more sensitive to your voice.
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING ∂TX function Monitor function The ∂TX function shifts the transmit frequency up to ±9.99 kHz without shifting the receive frequency. The Monitor function enables you to monitor your transmit audio. Use this function to check the voice characteristics while adjusting transmit audio parameters. 1.

4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Setting the Speech Compressor SSB mode The Speech Compressor increases the average RF output power, improving readability at the receiving station. This function compresses the transmitter audio input to increase the average audio output level. L The function is effective for long-distance communication, or when propagation conditions are poor. 10. Touch [COMP] for 1 second. 1. Select the SSB mode. (Example: USB) 2. Push FUNCTION . ••Opens the FUNCTION screen. 3.
4 RECEIVING AND TRANSMITTING Split frequency operation Split frequency operation enables you to transmit and receive on different frequencies in the same or different bands.

ABOUT CE INSTALLATION NOTES For amateur base station installations it is recommended that the forward clearance in front of the antenna array is calculated relative to the EIRP (Effective Isotropic Radiated Power). The clearance height below the antenna array can be determined in most cases from the RF power at the antenna input terminals. In all cases any possible risk depends on the transmitter being activated for long periods.
