Programming the Icom-M802, & the Open Ham/Dial Mode
The Icom M802 has an Open Ham/Dial Mode mode not discussed in early
documentation. The Open Ham/Dial Mode mode enables the M802 to transmit on "Ham"
frequencies, transmit on LSB (Lower SideBand), and manually tune almost like a regular
AM or ham radio. The CLAR/RX key toggles the radio back-and-forth between the
Channel Mode and the Open Ham/Dial Mode. To determine if the Open Ham/Dial Mode
on your M802 is enabled press the CLAR/RX key on the keypad. If enabled, the LCD
display will change, displaying frequency information with a cursor beneath the
rightmost digit. If the display does not change or there's no cursor beneath the displayed
frequency, the Open Ham/Dial Mode is not enabled. Here's how to put the radio into the
Open Ham/Dial Mode and set frequencies:
