NOTE:
The FT-8800 is a dual receive radio with a
left
and
right
side and set of keys and
knobs. The active side is identified by a
MAIN
icon in the top “right” corner of the ac-
tive display. When the instructions refer to
MAIN
key or knob, they refer to the active
transceiver side and do not affect the inactive side until the inactive side is made active.
To select the
MAIN
band, either press the P1 key on the mic or the
DIAL
knob on the
side you wish to set active.
