Vibration helps drain water away from the speaker housing (water that
might otherwise muffle the sound coming from the speaker). The
transceiver makes a vibrating noise when this function is being used.

ON to activate the Vibration Water Draining function.
“VIB WATER” appears.

water, regardless of [VOL] control setting.
The transceiver never accepts any key operations while the
Vibration function is activated.
The microphone lock function electrically locks [▲] and [▼] keys on the
supplied microphone. This prevents accidental channel changes and
function access.
