Selecting an Operating mode

There are 3 operating modes available to choose from: VFO mode, Memory Channel mode, and Call Channel mode.

■VFO Mode

VFO mode allows you to manually change the operating frequency. 1 Press [VFO] to enter VFO mode.

2Rotate the Tuning control to select your desired operating frequency.

•You can also adjust the frequency by using the microphone [UP]/[DWN] keys.

•The default step frequency for the Tuning control varies according to the type and operating band:

Type	144 MHz	430/440 MHz

K	5 kHz	25 kHz

E	12.5 kHz	25 kHz

M4	10 kHz	10 kHz

•To adjust the frequency by a larger amount, you can press the Tuning control to enter MHz mode. While in MHz mode, rotate the Tuning control to adjust the frequency in steps of 1 MHz. Press the Tuning control again to exit MHz mode and adjust the frequency using the normal step frequency. Using the MCP-2A (Memory Control Program), you can set the MHz mode step frequency to 10 MHz. Pressing the Tuning control will switch between 10 MHz, 1MHz, and off.

■Memory Channel Mode

Memory Channel mode allows you to quickly select a frequently used frequency and related data which you have saved in the transceiver memory. 1 Press [MR] to enter Memory Channel mode.
