    6-4 Configure contrast 
    The AR-ONE is equipped with variable LCD contrast which is adjustable in 32 steps to 
    provide best visibility under different viewing angles, extremes of ambient light & 
    temperature (and between sets due to variation). 
     
    The default setting for contrast is 12. The display generally becomes too dark to read 
    around 
    20 and too feint around 02. Best results are usually achieved within the range of 09 – 15.

    Alternatively, push the ESC key to abort entry.   
     
    Or, push the down arrow key to move to the next item on the configuration menu   
    (IF-GAIN). 
     
    6-6 Configure IF-GAIN (Intermediate Frequency gain)  
    						
    							 53 
    The IF gain control reduces the amplification in the receiver’s IF circuits and has the effect 
    of  
    reducing the sensitivity of the receiver. Normally, this is performed by the AGC system, and   
    the control is left at maximum gain, but reducing the gain can be useful to limit noise when 
    listening to CW or SSB signals. The IF gain control is must be used if the AGC is turned off. 
     
    The default setting for IF-GAIN is 255, maximum gain control value. 
     
    To access the configuration menu, push the FUNC key and then push the 7 key.

    Alternatively, push the ESC key to abort entry.   
     
    Or, push the down arrow key to move to the next item on the configuration menu 
    (DELAY). 
     
    6-10 Configure DELAY (Scan delay and Search delay) 
    This parameter affects the time, the AR-ONE will remain on active frequency in scan mode 
    or search mode once the received signal has disappeared and the squelch has closed. 
    This 
    Is particularly useful for customizing how long the receiver will wait for a reply before   
    resuming scan or search. For example, when communications are passed back and forth   
    between a control tower / aircraft which may take a few seconds. The limits are OFF / 
    HOLD 
    and 0.1 to 0.9 seconds in 0.1 second increments. The default is 2.0 seconds. 
     
    To access the configuration menu, push the FUNC key and then push the 7 key. 
     
    Push the down arrow key to move the cursor to “DELAY” selection point.    
    						
    							 56 
    Use the main tuning dial or the right arrow key or the left arrow key to select the desired   
    delay parameters. 
     
    2.0s      The AR-ONE will wait the specified time after the squelch closes before   
    resuming scan or search. 
    HOLD    The AR-ONE will stop indefinitely when an active frequency is located, this   
    is very useful when you don’t want to miss that once-in-a-lifetime   
    transmission! 
    OFF        The AR-ONE will resume scan or search instantaneously when the   
    squelch closes. 
    Push the ENT key to accept the data and return to a standard display.   
    Alternatively, push the ESC key to abort entry.   
     
    Or, push the down arrow key to move to the next item on the configuration menu (FREE). 
     
    6-11 Configure FREE (Scan free and Search free) 
    The scan free and search free parameter determines how long the AR-ONE will remain on 
    active frequency before resuming scan or search even though the frequency is still active.   
    This is useful if you wish to gain a snap shot of activity without the AR-ONE being tied to a 
    busy frequency for long periods of time (such as when monitoring active commercial   
    repeaters etc). Scan free and search free time saves you having to manually intervene to 
    force the scan or search process to resume and saves the need to lockout memory   
    channels or search frequencies using the PAS S function. The limits are OFF and 0.1 to 9.9 
    seconds. The default setting is OFF. 
     
    To access the configuration menu, push the FUNC key and then push the 7 key. 
     
    Push the down arrow key to move the cursor to “FREE” selection point.

    Filter). 
     
    6-13-1 Configure audio HPF (high pass filter) 
    The audio high pass filter is useful for limiting the audio bass response (allowing higher 
    tones to pass) improving intelligibility in certain circumstances (such as low frequency 
    whistles on AM, SSB & CW). 
      
    						
    							 59 
    There are four available pass frequencies:    50Hz, 200Hz, 300Hz, and 400Hz. 
     
    The higher the frequency the more limited the audio bandwidth. For highest fidelity for 
    listening, select 50Hz. The filter selection can be set to automode to select the proper filter
