Lightning

Any person is not safe outdoor during thunderstorm and lightning. This condition is getting worse if somebody keeps a hand-held radio; chances of being hit by lightning are doubled since lightning may hit a radio antenna as well. At this time, there is no hand-held radio having any kind of protection against lightning current (which is higher than 10 kA.). Note also that no car provides adequate protection of its passengers or drivers against lightning as well. Therefore, Alinco will not take responsibility for any danger associated with using its hand-held radios outdoor or inside the car during lightning.

receives it, if such signal may exist.

Built-in bar-antenna receives AM radio , eliminating the need to attach an

external antenna.

Earphone cord can be used as an antenna to receive FM broadcast and

other stronger signals without using an external antenna.

Automatic input switching. By connecting the optional remote controller to

the earphone jack and connecting an MP3 player or other portable audio device to the controller, you can listen to music under normal conditions and hear receiver messages when the DJ-X11 receives any signals.

Bug Detector function in two modes. This function notifies you of the

possible presence of a bugging device (wireless microphone) with a display, an alarm and a voice announcement.

Clone function for copying settings and various data between the receiver

units. It is also possible to connect the receiver to a personal computer to edit settings and data.

Tone Squelch and DCS, cut off shrill and rattling noises so that only the

target sound can be heard.

Scan speed is selectable from 3 levels. Select a fast scan speed to detect

strong signals, and select a slower scan speed to detect weak signals.

Voice Guidance function which announces the result of key operations or

the Bug Detector function in English.

Hold down the [POWER] key (approx. one second) to

turn the power ON.

Hold down the key again to turn the power OFF.

•

Due to utilize the capacity of the battery in full to maximize the operat-

MEMO

ing time, a special tune has been performed to the circuit of the DJ-X11. For this reason, you may encounter an event that the unit can’t be turned on after the battery pack is completely discharged and turned off by itself. In this case, remove any power source (the battery pack, dry cell case and external DC cable/adapter) from the unit, wait for 5 seconds or so, then supply one of correct DC power sources again to turn on. At this status, even an empty battery pack should work with an AC adapter.

5-2 Tuning the Frequency

For the procedure to select the band to tune, refer to (P. 28).

● Tuning the frequency for the main band

Rotate the upper main dial.

● Tuning the frequency for the sub band

Rotate the upper sub dial. Rotating the dial clockwise sets the frequency higher; rotating the dial counterclockwise sets the frequency lower.

5-3 Adjusting the Volume Level

Volume can be adjusted within the range of 31 levels from 0 to 30. The default is set to 10. When you hold down the [MONI] key, you will hear a hissing sound. Use this sound as a guide for adjustment.

hear nothing even if you increase the volume level. For details, refer to the following sections “Adjusting Squelch Level” (P. 26) and “Mute Function” (P. 27).

5-4 Adjusting Squelch Level

● What is “squelch”?

The Squelch function activates the speaker only when signals at a specified level or higher are received. This makes it easier to catch target signals by eliminating the noise which occurs when no signals are received. When the squelch level is increased, the receiver can receive strong signals, but cannot receive weak signals. “To open the squelch” means to deactivate the squelch. “To close the squelch” means the opposite. The strength of the signals required to open the squelch is determined by the squelch setting level. This level is adjustable because it varies in some degree depending on the location of signal reception and receiving frequency.

The squelch can be adjusted within the range of 10 levels (0 to 9).

5-4-1 Operating procedure

Rotating the dial clockwise sets the squelch level higher; rotating the dial counterclockwise sets the squelch level lower.

• To keep the squelch constantly open, set the squelch level to 0.

• While the squelch is open, scanning is disabled except for the periodic scan. To enable scanning, adjust the squelch level until you cannot hear any noise.

5. Basic Operation

5-5 Monitor function

The Monitor function forces the squelch to open. When receiving signals are relatively weak or are often interrupted, it opens the squelch temporarily, regardless of the current squelch level. This function is activated when the “Monitor key operation setting” (P. 87) is set to the Monitor function.

There are two options for the Monitor function: PUSH and HOLD. When the [MONI] key is pressed, both options open the squelch and the “BUSY” appears on the LCD.

• For the procedure to switch between PUSH and HOLD, refer to “Monitor key operation setting” (P. 87)

• When PUSH is selected, the squelch opens only while the [MONI] key is held down. When the [MONI] key is released, the squelch returns to the original level.

• When HOLD is selected, the squelch remains open once the [MONI] key is pressed. When the [MONI] key is pressed again, the squelch returns to the original level.

• When the Monitor function is used, the Tone Squelch and DCS func-

MEMO

tions is also disabled temporarily.

• If you cannot receive any signals and suspect a malfunction, use this function to check if the receiver can receive signals properly.

5-6 Mute Function

The Mute function silences sounds. It cuts off audio outputs even when signals are received. This function is activated when the “MONI key setting” (P. 87) is set to the Mute function. This function is useful when you want to silence the sound with one key touch without adjusting the volume. There are two options for activating the Mute function: PUSH and HOLD. When the [MONI] key is pressed, either option activates the Mute function and “MUTE” illuminates on the LCD.

• Only one of the Monitor function and Mute function can be selected at a time.

6-6 Receiving Operation

• Communication is not broadcasting. In most cases, communication is

CAUTION

established when necessary using minimum facilities. It is extremely rare for communication to send radio signals frequently. Unlike radio broadcasting, it is not always easy to receive communication.

• The noise you hear while no signal is received (called background noise or white noise) may vary in condition, volume and sound quality depending on the modulation mode, aerial condition, frequency and so on, and this is not a malfunction.

• The radio signal strength and sound quality which can be received may be affected by various factors including the power supply to be used (AC adapter or battery), locations/conditions (presence of electric appliances such as ﬂ uorescent lamps or TV, wooden or steel bar reinforced building, region, whether the user is standing still or walking, etc.) and aerial condition, and this is not a malfunction.

• The supplied whip antenna is designed mainly to receive the V/UHF bands outdoors. To efﬁ ciently receive signals indoors which are in the long wave, medium wave, short wave, and 1000 MHz or higher UHF bands, install a commercially-available external antenna suitable for the respective frequencies.

• In an area affected by an intense electric ﬁ eld, such as an area close to mountains where many transmission towers or stations exist, you may experience signal overlapping such as when airplane communication overlaps a radio broadcast sound. This, however, is not a malfunction. Using the Attenuator or RF Gain function described later can reduce such interference and interruption.

• The DJ-X11 receives radio signals over a very wide range, however, when it is compared with radios or receivers speciﬁ cally designed for a certain frequency range, its sensitivity, sound quality and volume may be inferior within that range. This is because their circuit designs are completely different; this is not a malfunction.

• The preset mode cannot be used with the sub band.

• When a certain combination of frequencies is set for the main and sub bands, one or both bands may experience reception failure, interference or unstable operation. This is due to the attempt to receive signals with two bands simultaneously and is unavoidable.

Please read and understand the above cautions before reading the rest of this manual. The operation of some functions may be difﬁ cult to understand unless you actually see the operation while receiving signals. It is recommended to practice operation by receiving actual AM/FM broadcasts.

6. Operating Modes

Set the mode to operate and tune to the frequency. When signals are received on the selected frequency, “BUSY” and the reception level are displayed on the LCD and the received sound is heard. Moreover, the RX lamp illuminates in green.

● The range of receivable frequencies is as follows:

Receivable frequencies for the main band

0.05 to 1299.99995 MHz

Receivable frequencies for the sub band 144 MHz band: 118 to 170.995 MHz 430 MHz band: 336 to 469.995 MHz

• The range of receivable frequencies for the sub band can be extended,

MEMO

although this is not useful in actual practice because the sensitivity degrades signiﬁ cantly.

Hold down the [FUNC] key (approx. one second) to activate the

Key-lock. (P. 63)

Problems may occur frequently due to poor receiving sensitivity and ﬁ lter characteristics depending on the use en- vironment, such as the signals which can be received with the main band cannot be received, or undesired radio signals are received. Even so, the expansion of the receivable frequency range of the sub band has been offered because reception is sometimes possible with strong radio signals or in a favorable radio signal environment. Note that this frequency range is not the rating speciﬁ ca- tion guaranteed by Alinco and it cannot be improved or modiﬁ ed due to the circuit design.

keys.

7. Memory Mode

Memory Mode

Memory mode allows you to pre-program frequently-used frequencies and settings into the receiver’s memory so that you can quickly call up a desired setting. A “bank” is a location where frequencies are categorized for ease of use. Each frequency programmed to a bank is called a “channel”. In an address book of a mobile phone, a “bank” corresponds to a “group starting with A”, a “group starting with B”, and so on. A “memory channel” corresponds to individual names.

7-1 Memory Types and Usage

The DJ-X11 has the following six types of memory banks.

Bank for normal memory channels

Bank for programmed scan channels

Bank for dual band channels

Bank for priority channels

Bank for skip-search channels

Bank for Bug Detector channels

• You cannot program duplicate frequencies to the bank for skip-search

CAUTION

channels. If you try to do so, an error beep will sound.

• The noise frequencies which the receiver itself constantly emits are programmed in skip-search channels before shipment.

Contains channels which are used in normal operation in Memory mode. A total of 1200 frequency channels can be programmed. You can program your favorite frequencies to call them up easily.

Contains channels which are used for the programmed scan to ﬁ nd signals within a speciﬁ ed frequency range. Up to 50 pairs of frequency ranges (upper and lower limits) can be programmed.

This bank is used to call up the channels of both the main and sub bands simultaneously. Up to 100 pairs can be programmed as dual band channels.

This bank is used for the Priority Monitoring function (prioritized reception). Up to 100 frequency channels can be programmed.

Frequencies programmed to this bank are skipped during VFO and programmed scans. Up to 100 frequency channels can be programmed. This is useful for programming constant noise signals or unwanted broadcasts.

Frequencies which are often used by bugging devices have been programmed to this bank. These channels cannot be programmed to or deleted from the memory. Only memory skip operation can be set.

7. Memory Mode

7-2 Programming a Memory Channel

This section describes how to program a memory channel with the DJ-X11.

• For easy understanding, it is recommended to read this page once and

MEMO

then actually operate the receiver according to the programming example shown on (P. 37).

In VFO mode, set the desired frequency and the Tone

Squelch function in advance.

You can program the following items in a memory channel.

• Frequency

• Tone frequency

• DCS code

• Modulation mode (reception mode)

• Tone squelch/Reverse tone squelch/DCS

• Memory name

• Skip setting

Press the [FUNC] key.

Refer to the table on the next page and rotate the dial to

select the bank and memory channel to be used for programming.

To program the frequency for the main band, use the main dial to select the bank and memory channel. To program the frequency for the sub band, use the sub dial to select the bank and memory channel. If a memory channel which has already been programmed is selected, “MR” is displayed on the LCD.

• Rotate the lower dial to change the bank type and rotate the upper dial to change the memory channel.

7. Memory Mode

• Bank

The relationship between the bank and the memory is as follows:

Number Banks for normal memory channels

(This setting may change before shipment due to the change in memory data.)

PRG Bank for programmed scan channels

DUAL Bank for dual band channels. A pair of frequencies for

the main and sub bands are programmed in one memory channel.

PRIO Bank for priority channels

PASS Bank for skip-search channels

BUG Bank for Bug Detector channels (Cannot be edited.)

Select an appropriate bank according to the usage.

• Memory channel

The number of programmable memory channels differs depending on the bank type as follow

Number 000 to …

PRG 0A to 49B

DUAL 000 to 099

PRIO 000 to 099

PASS 000 to 099

Select an appropriate memory channel according to the usage.

Press the key to complete the programming.

After the programming is complete, the receiver returns to the previous operation mode.

• By default, it is not possible to overwrite a memory channel to which

MEMO

data has been programmed.

• To delete or edit memory channel data, ﬁ rst disable or temporarily can- cel the “Write-protect (memory protection) function” (P. 91) and then continue the procedure.

• By using the free software which can be downloaded from the Alinco website (http://www.alinco.com/) and the optionally available PC connection cable (ERW-7/ERW-8), you can divide these memory banks as desired, into up to 50 banks x 1200 memory channels. This operation cannot be performed with the key pad of the receiver only.

7. Memory Mode

• “DUAL” can be selected only when the dual-band display is selected.

• The bank for programmed scan channels requires programming of two

CAUTION

frequencies to channels **A and **B.

Example: Assume that a frequency of 145.020 MHz is programmed

to channel 01A, and a frequency of 146.100 MHz is programmed to channel 01B. The programmed scan operation scans the range between 145.020 MHz programmed to channel 01A and 146.100 MHz programmed to channel 01B.

Example: When programming a frequency of 145.000 MHz to channel

Receiving Sensitivity (RF Gain) Adjustment and Attenuator Function

When there is interference with the receiving signal due to a station emitting strong signals on a nearby channel or when an FM broadcast is heard in the aviation radio band, use these functions to deliberately decrease the receiving sensitivity so that such interference is reduced and the target signal becomes more audible. Since the RF gain can be adjusted for the main and sub bands individually, it is suitable for the case when the main and sub bands are receiving different bands (such as the combination of the main band receiving VHF fire radio and the sub band receiving UHF simple business radio). The Attenuator function sets both bands in the same way, so that it is suitable for example when two frequencies of VHF aviation radio are received simultaneously.

After receiving signals from the active channel in VFO mode for 5 seconds (*1), the DJ-X11 receives the signals from the selected priority channel for 0.5 second to see if there are any signals being sent. This function is useful when you set your favorite channel as the main channel, and set a channel of interest as the priority channel. This function can be used for the main and sub bands individually.

Press the [FUNC] or key to stop the Priority Moni-

toring function.

• Scanning is disabled while the Priority Monitoring function is ON.

• Since the DJ-X11 monitors the priority channel every 5 seconds (*1), the audio of the main channel is momentarily interrupted at this interval. Although this phenomenon is conspicuous in particular for constant signals such as a broadcast, this is not a receiver failure.

*1 The interval at which the priority channel is monitored can be changed

in Set mode via the "Priority Monitoring interval setting" (P. 89)

The time for which priority channel signal reception is stopped can be

changed in Set mode via the "Priority Monitoring duration setting" (P. 90).

• Alinco’s Customer Service will not answer any general inquiries concerning bugging attempts other than the operation and operating procedure for this function.

9-10-1 Operating procedure in Silent mode

This mode provides an accurate search by producing the sound of received signals from the speaker and making a judgment based on the occurrence of a "howling" phenomenon which occurs if the signal is emitted from a bugging device. When you hear this ambient sound from the speaker, a bugging device may possibly be installed. (Be careful, as the sound may be loud.) If you want to use the Silent mode alone, set the "Bug coupling" option for the mode coupling setting of the Bug Detector function to "OFF".

9-10-2 Operating procedure in Sound mode

This mode searches for a bugging device and determines an approximate distance to it by producing a sound from the DJ-X11 to make the bugging device emit the sound and measuring the time difference between when the DJ-X11 produces the sound and when it receives the signal of the sound. The advantage is that when the receiver determines the presence of a bugging device, it provides a notiﬁ cation of the approximate distance to the device with a sound and on the display. The receiver emits a continuous loud beep during the search. If you want to use Sound mode alone, set the "Bug coupling" option for the mode coupling setting of the Bug Detector function to "OFF".



Hold down the left dial (approx.

one second) to activate the Sound mode.

Scanning starts automatically. The receiver emits a continuous beep during scanning. When no bugging device is found after the speciﬁ ed range is scanned for a certain period of time, "Stop" is displayed on the LCD and the search ﬁ nishes.

Move around the DJ-X11 slowly and search places

where a bugging device might be installed.

When the receiver determines the presence of a bugging device, it produces shorter beeps.

• When the DJ-X11 is moved quickly during the search, it may malfunction due to the Doppler effect.

• The function may not work properly depending on the relationship between the speaker orientation and the position of a bugging device.

• A malfunction may occur when the receiver receives radio signals including a sound similar to the tone it produces during the Sound mode operation.

• The scan time may become longer during the bugging device search when frequencies other than those often used by bugging devices have been linked with the bank for Bug Detector channels. (P. 54)

10-1-5 Detected signal output function

Some digital signals, such as 9600 bps high-speed packet communication of amateur radio, use modulation methods called FSK or GMSK. Consequently, these signals cannot be received properly with the DJ-X11 which receives ﬁ ltered audio signals such as 1200 bps AFSK packets. In such a case, you may be able to receive data communication by inputting the signals to a dedicated connecting device (TNC, etc.) or a PC.

• The communication you want to receive may not be able to be de-

CAUTION

coded due to various conditions such as the compatibility of your device, software and PC, PC properties setting, and the signal receiving environment (noise or suppression). Note that Alinco does not offer any support other than testing “Weather or not your DJ-X11 meets our factory-standard speciﬁ cations.” for this reason. Also, we cannot answer questions about the operating procedure of speciﬁ c devices or software, or the type or environment settings of PCs.

10-1-7 IQ signal output function

The DJ-X11 can output IQ signals from the earphone jack. By connecting the earphone jack and the PC's MIC/LINE IN input port with a commercially-available cable with ø3.5 mm stereo mini-plugs on both ends (the speciﬁ cation is the same as the cable used for the Cable-clone function described on P. 98), you can use SDR (Software Defined Radio) programs to enjoy reception on the PC using software available on the Internet. Since some of these programs offer functions which are unavailable with the DJ-X11 such as DSP (Digital Signal Processor), this function will expand the fun of "watching".

● Precautions common to all connections

• Be sure to turn off both the DJ-X11 and external device before establishing any connection.

• The earphone jack of the DJ-X11 accepts a ø3.5 mm 4-pole stereo mini-plug. Refer to the diagrams below for wiring. A commonly-available 3-pole plug cable can also be used because the remote control terminal can be connected to the ground even while the EDS-12 is used and this terminal is not used for cable-cloning or PC connection.

● Applicable plugs (Wiring of 4-pole plug)

The earphone jack of the DJ-X11 is wired as follows. Refer to the diagrams when you make a cable yourself. It is impossible to change the signals output to the terminals on the DJ-X11 side. Take other measures such as changing the wiring of the cable or changing the input setting of your receiving software.

(Use of 2-pole monaural plugs)

If you use the DJ-X11 only to output signals to an earphone, an external speaker, ACARS software, or a low-speed packet TNC, you can use a cable, an earphone, or an external speaker with ø3.5 mm 2-pole monaural plugs. The earphone antenna function of the DJ-X11 can be used even with third-party earphones of such a structure. When you use these devices, set the DJ-X11 not to output detected signals and IQ signals.
