1200 OPERATING MANUAL
CW SPOTTING
(
ZERO-BEATING
)
“Spotting” ]eroing in on another CW station) is a handy techniTue to ensure you and the other station are precisely on
the same freTuency.
The Tuning 2ffset Indicator in the display may also be moved so you can adjust your receiver freTuency to center the
incoming station on the pitch corresponding to that of your transmitted signal.
Using the Auto Zeroing System
2nly when the optional FFT unit is installed)
3ress the

[

switch momentarily to
adjust the receiving freTuency to the ]ero-in automati-
cally while receiving the CW signal.
Using the SPOT System
3ress the

”. 3ress the
[
MONI
]
button, then while pressing
the front panel
[
SELECT
]
button, the Spot tone will be
heard through your speaker. This tone corresponds to the
pitch of your transmitted signal. If you adjust the receiv-
er freTuency until the pitch of the received CW signal
matches that of the Spot tone, your transmitted signal
will be precisely matched to that of the other station.
5elease the
[

button to turn the Spot tone off.
A
DVICE:
In a tough '; pile-up, you may actually want to
use the S32T system to ¿nd a “gap” in the spread
of calling stations, instead of ]eroing in precisely
on the last station being worked by the '; station.
From the '; side, if a do]en or more operators also
using Yaesu’s S32T system) all call precisely on the
same freTuency, their dots and dashes merge into a
single, long tone that the '; station cannot decipher.
In such situations, calling slightly higher or lower in
freTuency may get your call through.
The Tuning 2ffset Indicator in the display may be
utili]ed for CW freTuency adjustment, as well. Its
con¿guration is set via 0enu item “
011 BAR DIS-
PLAY SELECT
” at the factory, and the Tuning 2ffset
Indicator is already set to the “
CW TUNE
” selection.
Q
UICK POINTS:
The CW Spotting process utili]es the Spot tone or
the Tuning 2ffset Indicator. The actual offset pitch
is set by 0enu item “
056 CW PITCH
”. The offset
pitch may be set to any freTuency between 300 H]
and 100 H], in 0 H] steps. You can either match
tones audibly using the
[
SELECT
]
button) or tune
the receiver freTuency so that the central red marker
on the Tuning 2ffset indicator lights up. 1ote that
there are 31 “dots” on the Tuning 2ffset Indicator,
and depending on the resolution selected, the incom-
ing CW signal may fall outside the visible range of
the bar indicator, if you are not reasonably close to
the proper alignment of tones.
CW CONVENIENCE FEATURES
The displayed freTuency on CW normally reflects
the “]ero beat” freTuency of your offset carrier. That
is, if you were to listen on USB on 14.100.00 0H]
to a signal with a 700 H] offset, the “]ero beat” fre-
Tuency of that CW carrier would be 14.100.70 0H]
the latter freTuency is what the
FT
DX
1200
displays,
by default. However, you can change the display to
be identical to what you would see on SSB by using
0enu item “
066 CW FREQ DISPLAY
” and setting
it to “
DIRECT FREQ
” instead of the default “
PITCH
OFFSET
” setting.
