PROGRAMMING CALL SIGNS
The built-in TNCs of the Commander and Transporter

different call signs (9 digits max.) on these transceivers
as the IDs of the TNCs.
Use the following Menu Nos. to program call signs:
1Press [MENU] to enter Menu mode.
2Select “4–1 (CMD CALLSIGN)” or “4–2 (TRP
CALLSIGN)”, then press [OK].
• The callsign entry field appears; the first digit blinks.
3Turn the Tuning control to select a character.
• You can enter 0 to 9, A to Z, and –.
4Press [aa

a].
• The cursor moves to the next digit.
5Repeat steps 3 and 4 to enter up to 9 digits.
6Press [OK] to complete the setting.
7Press [MENU] to exit Menu mode.
The keypad on the MC-53DM also is available to enter
alphanumeric characters in step 3. See page 18.
PROGRAMMING A TONE FREQUENCY
On receiving a tone from the Commander, the
Transporter causes the HF transceiver to enter Transmit
mode. On both the Commander and Transporter,
access Menu 4–3 (TONE FREQUENCY) and select the
desired, same tone frequency.
