Many functions on this transceiver are selected or configured via a software-controlled Menu instead of physical controls on the transceiver. Once familiar with the Menu system, you will appreciate the versatility it offers. No longer is the number and complexity of features restricted by the physical controls and switches on the front panel.

MENU A/ MENU B

The transceiver has two menus. These menus are called Menu A and Menu B. The menus contain identical functions; however, each menu can be configured independently.

For example, you may enjoy two different kinds of operating activities but you like to configure the transceiver differently for each activity. Menu A could be configured with one set of transmit signal characteristics, DSP settings, programmable buttons, frequency steps, etc. Menu B could be configured completely differently. By switching from Menu A to Menu B, you could instantly change Menu configuration and button assignment to suit your current operating style. Or, two operators may share a single transceiver. By dedicating one Menu per operator, each would always enjoy the best configuration.

Note: The COM communication parameter setting in Menu No. 35 is shared by Menu A and Menu B.

The following procedure explains how to check or change any of the Menu items.
