You can reduce the microphone input level and receiver bandwidth when operating on tightly-
clustered frequencies (channel spacing of 12.5 or 15 kHz). This will reduce the transmitter
and receiver deviation, thus minimizing interference to other users (and improving recep-
tion, as well).
To configure for the narrower bandwidth, use the following procedure:
1. Press the [
SET
] key momentarily to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob to select Menu #44 (
WID.NAR
).
3. Press the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob momentarily, then rotate the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob
to change the display to “
NARROW
.”
4. Press and hold in the “
Main
” band
DIAL
knob for 1/2 second to save the new setting and
to normal operation.
To restore the normal (higher) microphone input level and normal (15 kHz) receiver band-
width, select “
WIDE
” in step 3 above.
