Sat 800 Question,

I am monitoring 5220.2 USB and it is very static until the SYNC
kicks in then it is quiet. Am I still monitoring and will I hear anything
that is on that Freq.?


If the radio gets quiet with the sync on it is either locking on a
carrier or a internal birdie. What do you have on the S meter?

What are you trying to hear? If it's SSB turn off the sync and use slow
AGC. If it's AM put the AGC on fast and I wound still turn the sync off
until you get a signal then turn it on.
