time to changes in ambient light. A
setting of 1 provides immediate
display brightness changes when
there are changes in the light falling
on the photocell. With dA 1 set to a
value of 8, the response time is
approximately eight seconds. dA 1
values of 2 through 7 provide
intermediate response times. The
factory setting is 1.
Display Adjust 2 (dA 2) is used to
vary the display brightness when
ambient light conditions are less than
direct sunlight, such as in a dark
cockpit at night. The factory setting is

Display Adjust 3 (dA 3) varies the
amount of ambient light required for
the display to reach its full dim and
bright levels. A common use of dA 3
is to adjust the KT 70 and KT 71

brightness of other radios' displays
and to provide display brightness
compensation as the display ages.
