[Fists] re kc9brz zero beat

[AC5SH at aol.com]

My Jupiter has a "SPOT" key, which gives you a local  
(non-transmitted)  sidetone sound coming out the  speaker, 
at the side-tone frequency that you  have  specified in 
the setup menu.  I figured that is for  matching the  
other person's frequency, but the  manual doesn't break 
it down into the  baby-steps I  need.

Here's the deal. Just trurn on the spot tone  and match it up as close as  
you 
can. With RIT and  XIT off, that's same frq, "Zero Beat". If you're having a  
 
bad day, this can be difficult. The way to check it is to  get as close as 
you  
can with RIT and XIT off, then  throw in a narrow filter. If the other 
station 
dissapears, you missed. You don't have to be perfect and honestly,  within  
100 cps or so is close enough, most of the time. Closer  is better  though.
