9、e dedicated demodulator circuits for each receive mode, the IC- R8600 utilizes advanced digital processes that demodulate the incoming signals. The IF signal is sent to the A/D converter, resulting in digital signal, then is processed by a high-speed FPGA and DSP to be restored to an analog audio si
10、gnal. The received signal is processed to be demodulated according to the receive mode, including not only conventional analog communications in CW, AM, SSB, FM, WFM and FSK, but also advanced digital communications in D-STAR, P25, NXDN, dPMR and DCR.

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installat
18、ion. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency 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 installation. If this
19、 equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television 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 separ
20、ation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. DISPOSAL The crossed-out wheeled-bin symbol on your product, literature, or packaging
