VOICE GUIDE
When the optional VGS-1 is installed, each time you
change the transceiver mode such as VFO A/ B or
Memory Recall, the transceiver automatically
announces the new mode. In addition, you can
program the Remote Control panel [PF] key so that
pressing it makes the transceiver announce the
displayed information. If you have the optional
MC-47 microphone with MJ-88 plug adaptor, you
can program one of the Mic [PF] keys for this
function as well.
The table below indicates what the transceiver
automatically announces when it changes the settings.

For the [PF] key, the transceiver will announce
different information, depending on whether VOICE1
or VOICE2 is selected.
VOICE1:
•The frequency on display, channel number,
various mode settings, and Menu settings are
announced.
•The frequency for the VFO or memory channel will
be announced to 10 Hz digit. For the MHz
decimal point, “point” is announced. If the
memory channel has no data stored, “blank” is
announced.
•If a memory channel that has no data is selected
in Memory Scroll mode, “blank” is announced.
Note:
If operating a key or a control changes the contents of the
display while an announcement is in progress, the announcement is
interrupted.
VOICE2:
•The S-meter readings at the time you pressed the
key, are announced, for example, “S5” or “20 dB”.
The table below shows the available announcements
