Frequency Selection
The R1A-VHF receiver provides two 16-position rotary
switches to select the frequency, adjusted with a small
screwdriver inserted in the slot in the middle of the
switches. The left-hand switch makes 2.8 MHz steps
and the right-hand switch in 175 kHz steps, with the
switch positions marked in hexadecimal numerals 0
through F.
Frequencies are designated by two characters, such
as B5, where first character is the left-and switch posi-
tion and the second character the right-hand switch
position. Thus, in this example, B5 would indicate
205.775 MHz, as shown in the table below.
