Note that stations on different
bands may be stored in memory. Once stored, they may be recalled without the
need to rotate the band switch to the appropriate band. In other words, you may
store stations in the 11 MHz, 15 MHz, and 21 MHz bands as you tune them in
using the band switch and main tuning dial; once you press the MR button, you
only need to rotate the M CH switch to recall these stations, with no change in
the position of the bandswitch required. |

The M FINE control may be used to
provide fine tuning of =1 kHz from a memorized frequency. This may be necessary
should the memorized station begin to drift, or should propagation conditions
cause new interference to appear on frequency. Judicious use of the AM N
position of the mode switch, along with the M FINE control, will provide solid
copy on many stations that might otherwise be obliterated by interference |

| DIGITAL CLOCK
OPERATION |
| |
| The built in digital
quartz clock is a highly accurate timepiece which adds convenience and
flexibility to your FRG 7700 station. The clock will operate so long as the
receiver plugged in, and it will also operate off of the memory backup
batteries. When the receiver is initially plugged in, the clock will indicate
AM I:00 and will begin counting. Setting the time is a simple procedure, as
shown below. |
| |
| Example: set the
clock to 5:25:00 PM |
| |
| (1) |
Place the FUNCTION switch in the
CLOCK position, then push and hold the HOUR SET button. The minutes and seconds
will reset to zero. Tune in WWV at 10 MHz (or another international time
standard) on the receiver. When the time standard ticks off the start of a new
minute, release the HOUR SET button. This will align the count of the seconds
to the international time standard. |
| |
| (2) |
Push the HOUR button to advance
the hour digit to 5:00. If the HOUR button is held for more than two seconds.
the hour digits will advance rapidly until the HOUR button is released. |
|
|
| (3) |
Push the MINUTE button to advance
the minute digit to 25. When the MINUTE button is pressed and held, the digits
will advance rapidly, in the same manner as the hour digit. |
| |
| (4) |
The clock should be accurate
within 15 seconds per month. When setting the clock, be certain that the
appropriate AM/PM digit is illuminated. |
| |
| TIMER

| SLEEP timer |
| |
In this mode, you may set a
listening time of up to 59 minutes, after which the receiver will turn
off. |
| |
|
| To set the timer for
on (off automatic control of the FRG 7700, proceed as follows (example on time
10:30 AM, off time I 1 :30 4M) |
| |
| (1) |
Set the POWER switch to OFF, and
set the function switch to the ON position. |
| |
|
