13 OPERATOR CONVENIENCES

VOICE GUIDE	2 The PF key assignment parameter is announced as the number
	shown below.

When the optional VGS-1 is installed, each time you change the transceiver mode such as VFO A/ B or Memory Recall, the transceiver automatically announces the new mode. In addition, you can program the Remote Control panel [PF] key so that pressing it makes the transceiver announce the displayed information. If you have the optional MC-47 microphone with MJ-88 plug adaptor, you can program one of the Mic [PF] keys for this function as well.

The table below indicates what the transceiver automatically announces when it changes the settings.

For the [PF] key, the transceiver will announce different information, depending on whether VOICE1 or VOICE2 is selected.

VOICE1:

¥The frequency on display, channel number, various mode settings, and Menu settings are announced.

¥The frequency for the VFO or memory channel will be announced to 10 Hz digit. For the MHz decimal point, ÒpointÓ is announced. If the memory channel has no data stored, ÒblankÓ is announced.

¥If a memory channel that has no data is selected in Memory Scroll mode, ÒblankÓ is announced.

Note: If operating a key or a control changes the contents of the display while an announcement is in progress, the announcement is interrupted.

VOICE2:
