Channel 16 is automatically monitored during both dualwatch and tri-watch. w Push [CH/WX·U/I/C/L] to return to the condition before selecting Channel 16, or push [Y]/[Z] to select the operating channel. w Push [CH/WX·U/I/C/L] to return to the condition before selecting Channel 9 (call channel), or push [Y]/[Z] to select the operating channel. Push Push 7 4 BASIC OPERATION D U. S. A. , International and Canadian channels The IC-2SAT has 57 U. S. A. , 57 International and 61 Canadian channels. q Push [CH/WX·U/I/C/L] to select the regular channel. · If the weather channel appears, push [CH/WX·U/I/C/L] again. D Weather channels The IC-2SAT has 10 weather channels. They are used for monitoring NOAA (National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration) broadcasts (reception of weather channels possible in U. S. A. e Push [CH/WX·U/I/C/L] to return to the condition before selecting the weather channel group. w Push [Y]/[Z] to select a channel. · "DUP" appears for duplex channels. e To change the channel group, push [CH/WX·U/I/C/L] for 1 sec. · U. S. A. , International and Canadian channels can be selected in sequence. The IC-2SAT can detect a weather alert tone on the selected weather channel while in another channel (when the power save function is turned ON) or during scanning. 17 for details. International channels 8 Canadian channels BASIC OPERATION 4 I Receiving and transmitting CAUTION: Transmitting without an antenna may damage the transceiver. q Rotate [VOL] clockwise to turn power ON. Push [SQL·MONI] to stop "SQL" indicator blinking, then rotate [VOL] to set the volume level. e Push [Y]/[Z] to select the desired channel. - When receiving a signal, the [TRANSMIT/RECEIVE] indicator lights green while audio is emitted from the speaker. - Further adjustment of [VOL] may be necessary at this point. IMPORTANT: To maximize the readability of your transmitted signal, pause a few sec. Indicates the squelch level. Appears when the voice scrambler function is in use. e To turn the scrambler function OFF, repeat step w. · "SCRM" disappears. Push I Backlighting function This function is convenient for nighttime operation. 18) Push any switch except for [PTT] to turn the backlighting ON. · The backlighting is automatically turned OFF after 5 sec. of inactivity. D Programming scramble codes There are 32 codes (1 to 32) available for programming. In order to understand each other, all transceivers in your group must have the same scramble code, as well as the same scrambler unit. 20 for "Scrambler code" setting details. 11 5 SCAN OPERATION I Scan types Scanning is an efficient way to quickly locate signals over a wide frequency range. In addition, the "Weather alert" and "Auto scan" functions are available for scanning. These functions can be activated simultaneously, depending on the settings on the SET mode. 17, 18) PRIORITY SCAN CH 01 CH 02 Set the tag channels (scanned channel) before scanning. Clear those tag channels which are not needed or inconveniently stop scanning, such as digital communications. 17) NORMAL SCAN CH 01 CH 02 WX* CH 16 CH 03 WX* CH 03 CH 05 CH 04 CH 05 CH 04 * Previously selected weather channel when weather alert function is ON Priority scan searches through all tag channels in sequence while monitoring Channel 16. When a signal is detected on Channel 16, scan pauses until the signal disappears; when a signal is detected on a channel other than Channel 16, scan becomes dualwatch until the signal disappears.
