2 SETTING A FREQUENCY

■ Preparation	DVFO and memory modes
DTurning power ON/OFF	The transceiver has 2 basic operating modes: VFO mode and
DTurning power ON/OFF	memory mode. Select VFO mode ﬁrst to set an operating fre-
	quency.

[PWR]

➥ Push [PWR] for 1 sec. to turn power ON and OFF. [V/MHz•SCAN]

DOperating frequency band selection

The IC-208H has 2 m and 70 cm bands for transmission and reception. In addition, extra frequency bands 127, 220, 350, 500 and 900 MHz bands are available for wide-band receiver capability (except Taiwan and Korean version).

[BAND]

➥Push [BAND] to select the desired frequency band.

➥Push [BAND] to select the desired band.

BAND

Note that in this manual, sections beginning with a micro- phone icon (as above), designate operation via the HM-133 microphone.

[M/CALL•PRIO]

Appears

➥Push [V/MHz•SCAN] to select VFO mode.

•When VFO mode is already selected, the digit below 10 MHz (the digit below 1 MHz or 100 kHz disappear depending on ver- sions) disappear. In this case, push [V/MHz•SCAN] again (or twice or 3 times depending on version).

➥Push [M/CALL•PRIO] to select memory mode.

•“!” indicator appears when memory mode is selected.

➥Push [VFO/LOCK] to select VFO mode. VFO/LOCK ➥ Push [MR/CALL] to select memory mode.
