q

 Rotate  [ROTARY  SELECTOR],  or  push  one  of  the  memory 

 

w

channel keys, [MR-CH 1] to [MR-CH 4], to select a channel.
 When receiving a call, adjust the audio output to a comfortable 

 

e

listening level.

  •  When the received signal contains the same CTCSS tone or DTCS 

code, the LED indicator lights green.

  •  If no audio is heard, hold down [MONI] while adjusting the audio 

output level. Release to receive.

 The transceiver is now set to receive on the selected channel.

 

r

NOTE: The transceiver may be equipped with CTCSS tone or 
DTCS  code  capability.  The  CTCSS  tone  squelch  or  DTCS 
squelch opens only when the received signal includes a match-
ing tone or code. You can silently wait to receive calls from only 
stations using the same tone or code. The default settings for 
each channel are listed on the next page.

Transmitting:
Wait for the channel to become clear to avoid interfering.

 While holding down [PTT], speak into the microphone at a nor-

 

q

mal voice level.
Release [PTT] to receive.

 

w

IMPORTANT: To maximize the readability of your signal;
1. Pause briefly after pushing [PTT].
2.  Hold the microphone 5 to 10 cm from your mouth, then speak 

into the microphone at a normal voice level.
