*The LCD display may have cosmetic imperfections that appear as small or dark spots. This is not a malfunction or defect, but a normal characteristic of LCD displays.

Spurious signals may be received near the following frequencies. These are made in the internal circuit and does not indicate a transceiver malfunction.

• 0.150 MHz • 10.490 MHz

Spurious waveforms may be displayed on the spectrum scope screen regardless of the transceiver’s condition (Tx or Rx). They are made in the scope circuit. This does not indicate a transceiver malfunction.
