If you’re operating in an area of high RF pollution, you may need to con-
sider “Tone Squelch” operation using the built-in CTCSS Decoder. This fea-
ture will keep your radio quiet until a call is received from a station sending
a carrier which contains a matching (subaudible) CTCSS tone. Or if your friends have
radios equipped with DCS (Digital Coded Squelch) like your VX-5R has, try using that
mode for silent monitoring of busy channels.

AND
The
VX-5R
covers an incredibly wide frequency range, over which a number of different
operating modes are used. Therefore, the VX-5R ’s frequency coverage has been divided
into different operating bands, each of which has its own pre-set channel steps and operat-
ing modes. You can change the channel steps and operating modes later, if you like (see
pages 22 and 23).
To Change Operating Bands
•
Press the
[BAND(SET)AR]
key repetitively.
You will see the LCD indication change as
you press the
[BAND(SET)AR]
key.
‚
The VX-5R uses a dual VFO system (ex-
plained in detail on page 20). To switch from
the “Main” VFO (VFO-A) to the “Sub”
( V F O - B ) V F O i n s t a n t l y, p r e s s t h e
[VFO(DW)SC]
key momentarily. Pressing
the
[VFO(DW)SC]
key once more will re-
turn the VX-5R to VFO-A.

Once you have selected the desired band, you
