Vertex Standard FTM-10R manual Transmission

BASIC OPERATION

3.Rotating the DIAL knob tunes the frequency in pre-programmed steps. Clockwise rota- tion of the DIAL knob will increase the frequency; counter-clockwise rotation will lower the operating frequency.

4.Press and hold in one of the front panel / keys for one second (the 1 MHz digit will blink). Then rotate the DIAL knob to change the frequency at 1 MHz per step. This feature is extremely useful for making rapid frequency excursions over the wide tuning range of the FTM-10R.

5.Press the [VOL/SEL] key until the red LED to the left of the DIAL knob illuminates and the volume level is displayed on the LCD. Now, the DIAL knob becomes the vol- ume knob.

6.Rotate the DIAL knob to adjust the receiver volume. Clockwise rotation increases the audio output level.

TRANSMISSION

1.Press the front panel / keys to switch the operating band to 144 MHz or 430 MHz band.

2.Press the PTT (Push To Talk) key on the front panel when the frequency is clear. Speak into the microphone on the front panel (upper left corner of the front panel) in a normal voice level.

When talking around 3 feet away from the front panel microphone, the modulation may not be enough and the transmitted audio level may be lower.

3.When your transmission is complete, release the PTT key. The transceiver will revert to the receive mode.
