To match other radios, the owner can select Frequency, Tone and DQC Codes from
Table 1, Table 2
and
Table 3
on pages 6 and 7. In
our example, we will program an R-446 to operate on the "Brown Dot" frequency of 464.500 MHz with 100.0 Hz tone.
1. Connect the RDC-1 and 20 ft cable to the R-Series radio.
2. Attach the antenna to the radio.
3. Locate the RPS-1B AC adapter (do not connect it to the radio yet).
4.
Refer
to
Table 1
on page 6 to determine the two-digit frequency code for 464.500 MHz and write it down.
5. Refer to
Table 2
on page 7 to determine the two-digit tone code for 100.0 Hz and write it down.
6. Press and
HOLD
the Program Button (See Figure 1 on page 2 for location) and now connect power to the radio
using the RPS-1B AC adapter, the radio will now turn ON. A "P" will appear on the program display and the
speaker will beep rapidly.
7. When the beeping stops, release the Program Button. The radio will display a series of six characters for Radio
