The Main VFO will appear in the upper display field, and the Sub VFO will appear in the lower. When you rotate the Main Tuning knob for Main (VFO-A) or CLAR/VFO-B knob for Sub (VFOB), the yellow arrow " " will move to follow your receive frequency. If the receive frequency is outside of the screen, the position of the operating frequency will be "shown" in the lower area of the display as "<<" ">>", and "RCV Freq is out of range" will also be displayed. Just as in the CTR mode, you can use the Marker. Please see page 14 for information on using the marker. Advice: In either CTR or FIX mode, the current operating frequency will be indicated on the screen by the yellow arrow " .
