27、CITE ii Important Safeguards, continued 18. Outdoor Antenna GroundingBefore attempting to install this product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. a. Use No.10 AWG (5.3mm2) copper, No.8 AWG (8.4mm2) alu

28、mi- num, No.17 AWG (1.0mm2) copper-clad steel or bronze wire or larger, as ground wire. b. Secure antenna lead-in and ground wires to house with stand- off insulators spaced from 4 feet (1.22m) to 6 feet (1.83m) apart. c. Mount antenna discharge unit as close as possible to where lead-in enters hous

29、e. d. A driven rod may be used as the grounding electrode where other types of electrode systems do not exist. Refer to the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-1990 for information. e. Use jumper wire not smaller than No.6 AWG 13.3mm2) copper or equivalent, when a separate antenna grounding elect

30、rode is used. 14. ServicingDo not attempt to service the AC adaptor yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. 15. Damage Requiring ServiceUnplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicin

31、g to qualified service personnel under the following conditions: a. When the AC adaptor cord or plug is damaged. b. If the AC adaptor has been exposed to rain or water. c. If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those controls that are covered by

32、 the operating instructions. An improper adjustment may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the product to its normal operation. d. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged. e. When the product exhibits a distinct change

33、in performance this indicates a need for service. 16. Replacement PartsWhen replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used replacement parts speci- fied by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized substitutes may result in fire, e

34、lectric shock or other hazards. 17. Safety CheckUpon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician to perform safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

41、nces Glossary of Terms Troubleshooting Service and Warranty Table of Contents iii iv Introduction - General Description 1 The SW8 is a microprocessor controlled, synthesized, world band receiver with continuous coverage capabil- ity from 500 kHz through 30 MHz which includes the AM broadcast and sho

42、rtwave bands. Reception also includes FM broadcast (87 - 108 MHz) and Aircraft (118-137 MHz). The SW8 offers excellent sensitivity, selectivity, dynamic range and features that permit easy tuning of desired stations. Conveniently located front panel controls allow for rapid operator programming and

43、ease of use. The unit can be operated from either the supplied AC Adaptor or from six ?D? cell batteries (not supplied) for portable operation. A low battery voltage indication is displayed when that condition exists. Three electronically switched IF filters are provided. The front panel liquid crys

44、tal display provides feedback of the current status of the receiver. The seven digit frequency display provides resolution to 100 Hz accuracy in the AM broadcast, Aircraft and Shortwave bands. Resolution to 20 kHz is displayed in the FM broadcast band mode. Backlighting of the display is selectable

45、by a front panel button. To prolong battery life with internal battery operation, the backlighting automatically turns off after a short delay following a function change or retuning of the receiver. Reception modes include Lower/Upper Sideband (LSB), (USB), and AM in the Shortwave, AM broadcast and

46、 Aircraft bands. For the Shortwave and AM broadcast bands, a selectable synchronous detector (SYNC) allows for enhanced reception by eliminating or reducing distortion due to fading signals. During FM broadcast use, stereo reception is available through the use of headphones. Other built-in receptio

47、n aids include selectable slow or fast AGC, RF attenuator for use in strong signal handling conditions and TONE control. Two independent, real time clocks provide a local and alternative time selection. Also provided is a two event timer. A programmable memory area allows for 70 indepen- dent receiv

48、er set up memories. These memories do not require battery backup and are thus unaffected by power interruptions. All parameters associated with a particular memory channel are stored including the frequency, mode, bandwidth, fast or slow AGC, RF attenuator and synchronous detector. These memory chan

49、nels may be accessed manually or through a time scan with each channel monitored for a 5 second period. TONE VOLUME POWER? push HL TUNINGBAND SSB 5 BW 6 SCAN? MEM LAMP 9 STORE? VFO SKIP CLEAR?
