[Icom] IC-756 pro2 cw question

Thu, 11 Jul 2002 21:20:08 -0400

Jim, I don't have the Pro 2. I'm content using the 746. Hopefully the CW
modes are similar.

On the 746 when I set the 'CW Pitch' on the front panel I'm also setting
the VFO offset to the same frequency. Therefore the transmit is always
zero beat with the signal I like to hear. i.e. no need to zero beat!!
The computers do it for you [VOILA!!!]
