When the memory channel is programmed, [M] appears on the LCD.
3. Press and hold the FUNC key, then press MW key while [F] icon is ON. A beep
sounds, and the programmed frequency will be erased. Then [M] starts flashing.
4. While [M] is flashing, the erased memory is still displayed on the LCD.
Press and hold the F key then press the MW key again, the erased memory can be
recovered. If CH or mode had been changed, the recovery is not available.
(4) Programmable Data
The followings can be programmed in the memory channels 0 - F9 and the CALL channel:
. Frequency
. Shift frequency
. Shift dir/-)
. Tone encoder frequency
. Tone decoder frequency
. Tone encoder/decoder setting
. DCS code
. DCS setting
. Skip CH setting
. Busy Channel Lock Out (BCLO)
. TX power H/L
. Battery save setting
. Clock shift setting
5-9 CALL Channel Operation
The initial setting is 223.500MHz.
(1) Calling the CALL channel
1. Press the CALL key, and CALL channel is called. [C] (Right justification) appears
on the LCD and the unit enters the CALL mode.
In CALL mode the frequency and memory channel number can not be changed by dialing.
The offset setting and tone setting can be changed and operated temporarily.
2. Press the CALL key again to return to VFO mode or memory mode.
Also pressing the V/M key causes to return to the previous VFO mode or memory mode.
3. Scanning can not be done in the CALL mode.
(2) Changing the Frequency of the CALL Channel
The CALL channel is allocated as a memory channel. So when you change the
CALL frequency and other settings, call the memory channel C from the VFO or
memory mode to reprogram.
Note: CALL channel frequency can be changed but can not be erased.
5-10 Scanning
This function varies the frequency automatically to search for the signals being received.
Timer Scan (After pausing the scan, the frequency goes to the next channel when 5
seconds elapsed even if a signal is picked up.)
Busy Scan (After pausing the scan, the frequency goes to the next channel when the
signal is disappeared.)
While scanning 1. the rotary encoder determines the direction of the channel UP/DOWN.
2. Monitor function is activate.
. Scanning can be released by pressing any key (except for the MONI key).
. The last direction of UP/DOWN is defined as the scan direction.
