signal strength, scanning stops and broadcasts can be heard.
When broadcasting has finished, the radio set remains adjusted
to the respective channel for another three seconds. If any further
signal is not received, scanning starts again.
By actuating the keys
s
and
t
for channel selection, the sense
of scanning can be switched over while the function is activated.
Dual Watch function (DW)
Using this function, a channel which is freely selectable and one
of the two
EMG
channels can be monitored almost simultaneously.
To do so, switch over to the first channel to be monitored using
the channel selection keys and afterwards press the
HI-CUT
key
for approx. two seconds. The radio set switches over to the second
channel to be monitored, the EMG channel 19.
DW
appears on
the display.
If you wish to monitor channel 9 instead of channel 19, press the
HI-CUT
again for another two seconds approximately.
Now adjust the squelch function such that the background noise
just disappears. After approx. 3 seconds the radio set automatically
starts to switch over between both channels. If a signal with sufficient
signal strength is received on one of the two monitored channels,
the radio set remains adjusted to this channel. Only if any signal
is not received anymore for more than three seconds, the radio
set again switches over to
DW
mode. However, if the radio set
switches over to transmission mode during these three seconds,
DW
mode is automatically deactivated.
The
DW
function is switched off by holding the
HI-CUT
key pressed
for approx. 2 seconds.
Key beep (BEEP)
Key beep
BEEP
is switched off by holding the
CH19/9
key pressed
for two seconds and is switched on again by pressing the key once
more. The display shows
bP on
or
bP of
for approx. three seconds
instead of the channel number.
S-meter
During reception, the strength of the received signal is shown by
means of a bar display. This is the so called S-meter. With a voltage
of 50 µV (microvolts) at the receiver input S9 is indicated. Reception
of signals as of S5 should be perfect and without any problems.
Transmission
For transmitting, press the
PTT
button (push to talk) at the left side
of your microphone. Hold the button pressed and speak with normal
voice level into the microphone.
During transmission,
TX
is indicated on the display for control
purposes. Dont speak too loud such that the sound of your voice
is natural for your radio contact partner. We recommend you to
test this and to ask for a modulation report afterwards. However,
please keep in mind that you should not transmit without connected
and adjusted antenna, since this would damage your radio set.
Before starting the transmission, wait for a moment to make sure
that the channel is free and that there is no doubling with a
