2 SETTING A FREQUENCY

■Tuning step selection

[

Tuning steps are the minimum frequency change increments when you rotate [DIAL] or push [Y]/[Z] on the microphone. Independent tuning step for each frequency bands can be set for individual tuning convenience. The following tuning steps are available.

• 5 kHz	• 10 kHz	• 12.5 kHz	• 15 kHz
• 20 kHz	• 25 kHz	• 30 kHz	• 50 kHz
• 100 kHz	• 200 kHz

☞NOTE: For convenience, select a tuning step that matches the frequency intervals of repeaters in your area.

qPush [BAND] to select the desired frequency band.

•Push [V/MHz•SCAN] to select VFO mode, if necessary.

wPush [SET•LOCK] to enter set mode.

[SET•LOCK]

ePush [SET•LOCK] or [S.MW•MW] several times until “TS” appears as shown below.

rRotate [DIAL] to select the desired tuning step. tPush [V/MHz•SCAN] to exit set mode.

zPush [BAND] to select the desired frequency

SET band.

B• Push [VFO/LOCK] to VFO mode, if necessary. x Push [SET B(D-OFF)] to enter set mode.

cPush [SET B(D-OFF)] or [ENT C(T-OFF)] several times until “TS” appears.

vPush [Y] or [Z] to select the desired tuning step. b Push [CLR A(MW)] to exit set mode.
