DRU-3A DIGITAL RECORDING UNIT
(OPTIONAL)
The optional DRU-3A unit allows you to record a voice
message on up to 3 channels. After recording a
message via your transceiver microphone, you can then
send that message.
The maximum recording time for each channel is as
follows:
Channel 1: Approx. 30 sec
Channel 2: Approx. 15 sec
Channel 3: Approx. 15 sec
The DRU-3A is useful in many situations:
• DX chasing or contest operation where repeated
calls are necessary for extended periods of time
• Checking interference complaints to other equipment
(lets you be in two places at one time)
• Checking or adjusting your transmit signal or your
antenna(s) if it’s not convenient to be sitting in front
of your microphone
• Helping a friend adjust his antenna or receive when
he needs repeated test transmissions from you
For information on how to install the DRU-3A unit, refer
