4. SP-400 Operating Instructions 

(1) Frequency Selection 

1.        If 118.000 MHz is being received and 118.700 MHz is desired. 
2.        Input “1”      1 is displayed and the 10 MHz column is flashing. 
3.        Input “1”      11 is displayed and the 1 MHz column is flashing. 
4.        Input “8”      118. is displayed and the 100kHz column is flashing. 
5.        Input “7”      118.7 is displayed and the 10kHz column is flashing. 
6.        Input “0”      118.70 is displayed and the 1kHz column is flashing. 
7.    Input “0”   118.700 is displayed.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
            If 4 or 9 is input in the 10kHz column, 0 is automatically selected for the 1kHz 

entry and displayed. 

 

            If 2 or 7 is input in the 10kHz column, 5 is automatically selected for the 1kHz 

entry and displayed. 

 

If other number is input in the 10kHz column, the 1kHz column is flashing. And 
only 0 and 5 can be inputted into a 1kHz column. 

 
Note:  
      Any frequency outside of the range listed below will not be accepted. If this 

happens, the unit will automatically return to its previous mode. 

 

      108.000 MHz to 117.950 MHz (50kHz step) – 200 NAV frequencies. 
      118.000 MHz to 142.975 MHz (8.33kHz step) – 3000 COMM frequencies. 

 

      If there is no input within five seconds during a frequency entry the unit will 

automatically return to its previous mode. 

 

            If a wrong key is pressed while entering a frequency, press the CLR key and start 

again. 

 

NOTICE : CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY THE 

MANUFACTURER FOR COMPLIANCE COULD VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO 

OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT.
