Repeat the same procedure to program other memory channels.
3.3.7 MEMORY CHANNEL SCANNING
You can scan and select any of these 10 preset frequencies by following the procedure described below:
(1)
Press the
MAN
button.
(2)
Press the
MEM
button.
(3)
Slowly turn the Squelch knob clockwise until the receiver noise disappears.
(4)
Press the Scan button. The unit will scan from lower to higher frequencies. When you press the
button again, it will scan from higher to lower frequencies.
(5)
To stop scanning a certain channel, press the
MAN
button, or turn the Squelch knob
counterclockwise until you hear the receiver noise.
3.3.8 METER
The meter built into your RCI-2985DX / RCI-2995DX on the left hand side of the
LCD
display
provides the following information:
1. SIGNAL/MODULATION METER
In transmit mode, it provides a visual indication of modulation percentage when transmitting in the AM
mode and received signal strength on the receive mode.
2. RF/SWR METER
This meter has two purpose. It indicates relative transmitter power when transmitting and antenna SWR
(Standing Wave Ratio). In order to achieve maximum radiated power, it is important that your antenna
be in good condition, properly adjusted and matched to your transceiver. The built-in SWR (Standing
Wave Ratio) meter allows you to measure your antenna condition. To operate this function, connect
your antenna to the transceiver antenna connector, set the mode switch to AM and adjust the MIC Gain
to minimum. Select a frequency near the middle of the band you plan to use most. Activate the SWR
function and press the PTT button on the microphone. A bar on the meter is an indication of the antenna
matching. If there is no bar, it indicates that your antenna system is perfectly matched. The less bar, the
better matched. If several bars appear, your antenna needs adjusting. The SWR function is self
calibrating.
3.3.9 CTCSS - OPTIONAL
The RCI-2985DX / RCI-2995DX can operate with CTCSS frequencies for accessing repeaters, with an
optional CTCSS (Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System) encoding device installed.
3.3.10 PROCEDURE TO RECEIVE
(1)
Be sure that the power source, microphone and antenna are connected to the proper connectors
before going to the next step.
(2)
Press the
POWER
switch to apply power to the transceiver.
