SECTION V. 
Operation  
 
Initial Preparations 

Connect the microphone to the microphone jack. 
 
Connect the antenna to the antenna coax connector. Make sure the coax line is of the correct 
impedance (50 ohms) and is neither shorted nor open. 
 
Make sure the function switch is in the off position, then connect the power supply cord to the 
power supply jack. The red lead should be connected to the positive side of the power source and 
the black lead to the negative side. In the event that these leads are improperly connected, the 
transceiver will not function. No damage will be, however, incurred since protection is provided in 
the P.A. for this purpose. 
 
Turn the volume and squelch controls to the maximum counter-clockwise position. 
 

Operation 

When the function switch is set to either the high or low position the set is switched on and the 
channel indicator window and meter will be illuminated. 
 
Switch the channel selector to the desired channel. 
 
Choose the proper DPX offset setting, or SPX for simplex operation. 
 

Reception 

Adjust the volume control to a comfortable listening level of noise, if no signal is present. 
 
Carefully adjust the squelch control clockwise until the noise just disappears. This is the proper 
squelch threshold setting and must be done when no signal is present. Your transceiver will now 
remain silent until an in-coming signal is received which opens the squelch. If the squelch is 
unstable due to the reception of weak or stations, adjust the squelch control further until the 
proper threshold is obtained. 
 
The S meter indicates the signal strength of the incoming stations and is calibrated in S units. and 
db over S9. The light illuminating the meter acts also as lock indicator for the PCC. 
 

Transmitting 

Push the PTT (push to talk) button on the microphone and the transceiver will transmit. At the 
same time the TX indicator will be illuminated red and the meter will provide an indication of 
relative power output of the transmitter. The pointer will be on or near the red mark on the meter 
scale when on high power and just a little over 1 on low power. Hold the microphone about three 
inches from your mouth and speak in a normal voice. The microphone is of the dynamic type and 
provides good pickup for all levels of voice. 
 
To receive again, just release the PTT button. This will also switch off the light.
