MAX RANGE ON/POWER OFF/ATTEN ON: This multipurpose 3-position switch turns
the power on and off. It also operates the attenuator, needed when your receiver is
being swamped by the animal's beeping signal.
When the switch is in the MAXimum RANGE ON position, the receiver power is
turned on and the attenuator is off to give
best long distance
tracking.
When the switch is in the ATTENuator ON position, the receiver power is turned on
and the attenuator is on for
best close-in
tracking.
When the switch is in the center POWER OFF position, the receiver power is
turned off to
save battery
.
GAIN: Sets receiver volume; turn clockwise for more volume; turn counterclockwise for
less.
TUNE: Fine-tunes each 10 KHz channel. O (zero) position marks the channel center. -5
and +5 are marks to show plus and minus 5 KHz from center frequency.
CHANNEL: Ten-position channel switch allows selection of the desired frequency
number. See list of channels/frequency ranges on top of receiver.
SIGNAL METER: Enhances direction and location finding by allowing comparison of
signal with the beeping sound coming from transmitter. The sensitive needle deflects to
match transmitter collar's sound. The stronger the signal, the more the needle is moved
to the right with the beep.
