RECEIVER OPERATION 1 Getting Started Connect the battery pack and the supplied antenna. Press the POWER switch to turn the transceiver on. One of the default frequencies should appear on the display. 2 Tuning Control and Volume Control This transceiver assigns two volume and tuning control functions to the two controls. Before proceeding to the nex[...]

When you press the BAND key, control of each function is transferred to the VHF band. When you press and hold the E.CHG key (or within two seconds of pressing the E.CHG key), each control temporary control of the volume or tuning control passes to the VHF band. We recommend that you use this function in order to temporarily change the volume or fre[...]

Whenever you are selecting frequencies, your first step should be to set the squelch control. The squelch helps eliminate “white noise” or static until you receive active communications on a frequency. There are two squelch controls, one for the UHF band and one for the VHF band. To set the squelch controls: 3 Selecting a Frequency You have sev[...]

For the European version and some other markets, Next press numeric keys 0 and 5. 5 The transceiver actually changes frequency only after the 1 kHz digit is entered. The 1 kHz digit is not displayed if it is a zero. If you do not enter the 1 kHz digit, the indicator flashes and the transceiver defaults to the previous operating frequency. Notes 1 I[...]

Using the Tuning Control The tuning control selects frequencies in up or down sequentially. Rotate the tuning control clockwise or counterclockwise to select the desired operating frequency. 4 Step Size Selection 1 2 14 The transceiver must be in the VFO mode to select frequency steps. To select the desired tuning or scan step size use the followin[...]

(See page 26) For exampl[...]

5 To confirm that the programming was properly performed rotate the Tuning control. The transceiver should not go above or below the programmed band limits. 6 Basic Receiving Functions When receiving a signal, the Main/Sub S-meter deflects and the Main/Sub BUSY indicators appea Rotate the volume control to the desired level. VFO tuning range 144.00[...]

TRANSMITTER WARNING: Before you attempt to transmit, attach an antenna with a low standing wave ratio to the antenna connector. Failure to provide a proper load may cause damage to the final amplifier section. Always check that the frequency is clear before transmitting. 1 To transmit, follow these steps: 1 Use any of the frequency selection method[...]

3 TX. Stop Function The TX Stop function allows you to temporally disable the transceiver transmit, preventing accidental or unauthorized transmission. Press the F key, then press the f 2 /TX.S key to turn the TX. Stop function on or off. No indicator means the high power position has been selected. Use high power for maximum transmitter power. See[...]

USING THE MEMORY 1 Microprocessor Memory Backup All memory channel data is backed up in EEPROM. It is not lost unless you reset the memory. All other data that you set is retained by a secondary lithium battery that will provide memory backup for about 20 days if you remove the battery pack or external DC power. A fully discharged battery will requ[...]

4 Memory Contents Each memory channel can store information as shown in the chart below. X =Can be stored in memory Normal Split Channel Channel RX frequency TX frequency Tone(CTCSS) frequency, Tone (CTCSS) status Frequency step Shift status, REV on/off X N/ A DTSS code.

You can use numerics 0 to 9 and the letters A 4 Enter your message with the keypad. See the list on page 45 for the key combinations for each letter. 5 If you enter the wrong message, press the VFO key to sta[...]

SCANNING You must adjust the squelch to the threshold point for proper scan operation. You cannot use scan in conjunction with the tone alert function and paging. Scanning occurs separately in the VHF and UHF bands. You can reverse the direction by turning the Tuning control or MESSAGE key. 1 Hold/Resume Programming This transceiver provides two ty[...]

3 Scan Options The following scan options are available: * Memory Scan Scans through those memory channels that have data stored and that have not been locked out. This function operates only in the memory mode. * Band Scan Scan proceeds over the entire band. This function operates only in the VFO mode. (page 26) n Programmable Band Scan The scan r[...]

2 Press the F key, then the 0/L.OUT key. A * indicator appears below the memory channel number on the display, indicating that channel will be skipped in the memory channel scan mode. 3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to lockout any other channels you may want to skip. 4 To cancel the lockout, select the memory channel number. If it was locked out, it will ha[...]

5 Press and hold the M key for longer than one second, then press the 4 key. Notes 1 Initialize the VFO memory (VFO RESET) to clear both programmed limits simultaneously. Press and hold the F key and turn on the power. You can reprogram either limit independently. Initiating Programmable Band Scan 1 Adjust the SQL control to the threshold point. 2 [...]

REPEATER OPERATION 1 Transmitter Offsets All amateur radio repeaters use a separate receive and transmit frequency. The receive frequency may be above or below the transmit frequency. Most repeater configurations fall into one of the following categories. Offset Direction UHF Band (European version VHF Band UHF Band only) 2 Selecting the Offset Dir[...]

4 Manual Offset Selection 5 The Reverse Function The factory default sets the automatic offset frequency. You can select any offset frequency in the range 0 to 99.9 MHz in 100 kHz steps. Some repeaters use a ’ reverse pair’, that is, the transmit/receive frequencies are the reverse of other repeaters. 1 Press and hold the SHIFT/REV key and swit[...]

6 Tone Operation Some repeaters require a control signal to activate them. Several different methods are currently in use. In the United States, sub-audible tones are sometimes used. This transceiver will generate sub- audible frequencies. In Europe and the United Kingdom, a 1750 Hz tone is used in transmitting. Simply press and hold the TONE key t[...]

7 Autopatch Operations (U.S.A. versions only) Some repeaters offer a service called autopatch. This feature allows you to dial a telephone number from your transceiver and carry on a telephone conversation. This function requires the use of a DTMF (Dual Tone Multi Frequency) keypad. The transceiver also provides four additional keys - A, B, C, and [...]

8 DTMF Memory You can store 10 DTMF telephone numbers up to a maximum of 15 digits long in memory. Storing DTMF Codes 1 Press the M key, then press the MHz key to select the DTMF code entry mode. 2 Enter the DTMF code on the keypad 3 Press the MR key after entering the DTMF code. 4 Select the channel (O-9) where you want to store the DTMF code and [...]

Making a DTMF Call 1 Hold the PTT switch down and press the MHz key. 2 Press the numeric key (O-9) for the channel where the DTMF code is stored. 3 The DTMF code appears on the display. Note Transmission continues until the whole code string is recalled, even if the PTT switch is released. You cannot stop DTMF code transmission once it is initiated[...]

CTCSS OPERATION The CTCSS unit (TSU-7) is included only with models delivered to the United States and Canada. The CTCSS unit (TSU-7) installation instruction are shown on page 63. If the Continuous Tone Code Squelch System (CTCSS) function is activated, the transceiver will not open squelch until it receives the proper PL tone (tone squelch). Sele[...]

THE DUAL TONE SQUELCH SYSTEM (DTSS) DTSS allows squelch activation in the receive mode when the transceiver receives a three-digit code matching the DTSS code you have selected. Once squelch is activated, it operates normally from then on. If no signal is received for more than two seconds, squelch turns off until the transceiver receives a matchin[...]

Paging uses a DTMF (Dual Tone Multi Frequency) signal and is useful in calling members of a group, a specific station, or for waiting for a call from another station.
