Icom AG-2400 [3/4] I activating the satellite mode

Icom AG-2400 [3/4] I activating the satellite mode
■ Activating the satellite mode
Operating frequencies in satellite mode can be set both
before and after activating the satellite mode. Normal
and reverse tracking are available.
ï Transferring the VFO frequency to the satellite
VFO.
q Set the downlink frequency (receive) in the MAIN
band.
w Set the uplink frequency (transmit) in the SUB band.
e Push [SATELLITE] for 1 sec. to transfer the fre-
quencies, set in steps q and w, into the satellite
VFO.
• Satellite mode is automatically selected after trans-
ferring.
• “SATL” indicator with either “NOR” or “REV” indi-
cator appears.
• VFO and memory mode indication are displayed in
the SUB band (lower area) during satellite mode.
■ Setting the satellite VFO
q Push [SATELLITE] to enter the satellite mode.
• “SATL” indicator with either “NOR” or “REV” indicator ap-
pears.
w Push [V/M 1] to toggle satellite VFO and memory
mode.
• VFO or memory mode indication is displayed in the SUB
band (lower area).
e Push [SCAN . M ] to enable the downlink frequency
tuning.
• Uplink frequency indication disappears.
• Rotate the tuning dial to set the downlink frequency and
push [SSB/CW] to select the operating mode.
• Push [SCAN . M ] again after the tuning.
r Push [SWP 0 S ] to enable the uplink frequency tuning.
• Downlink frequency indication disappears.
• Push [SWP 0 S ] again after the tuning.
NOTE: To select the operating mode for the uplink,
push [SUB] to enable the SUB band access.

■ Tracking selection
Push [F-INP ENT ] for 1 sec. to switch be-
tween normal and reverse tracking.
ï Normal tracking
Both downlink and uplink frequencies increase or de-
crease in the same step simultaneously by tuning dial
rotation.
ï Reverse tracking
The downlink frequency follows the tuning dial rotation,
however, the uplink frequency changes in the reverse
direction to the tuning dial rotation in the same step.
■ Preparation
q Decide on a usable satellite.
w Confirm the approximate location of the satellite and
operating mode (e.g. “B,” “J,” etc.) through docu-
mentation (magazine, etc.) or via appropriate satel-
lite tracking software.
e Set the antenna direction for the desired satellite.
r Select satellite mode on the transceiver.
• Push [SATELLITE].
• Push [F-INP ENT ] for 1 sec. to select track-
ing mode if desired.
t Select operating mode.
y Set the downlink frequency (MAIN band) to the bea-
con frequency.
• Refer to a ham magazine or book for detailed informa-
tion.
• Adjust the antenna direction so that the S-meter shows
to its strongest level.
• The S-meter level should be noted for transmit power ad-
justment during a loop test.
