•Push [DISPLAY] 1 or 2 times to select M.

•Push [MENU] one or more times to select the M2 func- tions.

➁Set the desired frequency and operating mode in VFO mode.

•If you want to program the split frequency function, pro- gram both receive and transmit frequencies into VFO A and B, then turn ON the split function.

•If you want to program a repeater function, set a tone frequency (p. 49) in addition to the receive/transmit fre- quencies.
