Powering On
To turn the transceiver on, push in the orange
PWR
button for second. If the radio has not been used
before, the display should appear like that below.
The larger frequency readout is the
main
channel,
while the smaller one to the right is called the
sub
channel. The
symbol indicates which VFO (A or B)
is selected for operation, and the
blinking
SAVE
indi-
cator lets you know that the
battery
saver is enabled
from the factory (we will cover more on this later).
When you turn on the radio the first time, you will
hear channel noise, and will
need to set the squelch
/eve/ as explained on the following page.
Knob Functions
Let’s spend a few moments on how the knob func-
tions, as understanding its proper use will make it
easier to operate the rig and configure various fea-
tures as we continue through the manual.
As shown in the illustration, the lower ring adjusts the
volume. Set it for a comfortable level while receiving
a station, or else press the middle monitor switch
(below the PTT) to disable the squelch, and adjust
the volume level on background noise.
Rotating the knob tunes in the default step size on
the VFO, or else selects programmed memories dur-
ing MR (Memory Recall) operation.
Pressing the knob
mornentariljl (< 0.5s)
selects the
band of operation.
Holding
it longer recalls the menu
list, from which various transceiver functions are
enabled and their settings are configured.
