OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1.    Connect the 7208 tuner to the transceiver, earth and antenna as detailed in the transceiver installation instructions.

2.   Select the desired channel, select AM or TUNE and switch transceiver ON Set LOAD to 6 and ANTENNA to B.

Transmit and slowly rotate the TUNE control locking for a peak in the meter reading.

If a peak cannot be found repeat using different ANTENNA positions.

When the peak is found rotate LOAD to find the position giving the highest meter reading retrimming TUNE if necessary.

Note the LOAD, TUNE and ANTENNA positions on the scale provided on the front of the tuner.

Each time the channel is re-selected LOAD and ANTENNA may be set from the logging scale.

TUNE must be adjusted for peak meter reading using the…………………..   incomplete.
