PRECAUTIONS iii FCC INFORMATION FOR CLASS B UNINTENTIONAL RADIATORS: This equipme

15、nt has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reason- able protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radi- ate radio f

16、requency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular in- stallation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or te

17、levision reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and re- ceiver. Connect the e

18、quipment into an outlet on a circuit differ- ent from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV techni- cian for help. SUPPLIED ACCESSORIES The following accessories are supplied with the receiver. q Hand strap 1 w Antenna 1 e Belt clip 1 r Battery pack (

19、BP-244) 1 t Battery charger* (BC-149A/D) 1 (The shape of the BC-149A and BC-149D are different.) *Not supplied with some versions. t eq r w OPERATING THEORY Electromagnetic radiation which has frequencies of 20,000 Hz (20 kHz*) and above is called radio frequency (RF) energy because it is useful in

20、radio transmissions. The IC-RX7 receives RF energy from 0.150 MHz* to 1300 MHz* and converts it into audio frequency (AF) energy which in turn actuates a loudspeaker to create sound waves. AF en- ergy is in the range of 20 to 20,000 Hz. * kHz is an abbreviation of kilohertz or 1000 hertz, MHz is abb

21、revia- tion of megahertz or 1,000,000 hertz, where hertz is a unit of fre- quency. OPERATING NOTES The IC-RX7 may receive its own oscillated frequency, result- ing in no reception or only noise reception, on some fre- quencies. The IC-RX7 may receive interference from extremely strong signals on dif

22、ferent frequencies or when using an external high-gain antenna. iv Icom, Icom Inc. and the logo are registered trademarks of Icom Incorporated (Japan) in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Russia and/or other countries.
